Zusammenfassung:Electronic pill (1, 11) comprising at least one medicine reservoir (2, 12) with a solid powder or granulate medicine, a discharge opening (3, 13) and an actuator responsive to control circuitry for displacing medicine from the reservoir (2, 12) to the discharge opening (3, 13). The medicine comprises a dispersion of one or more active ingredients-e.g., solids in powder or granulate form-in an inert carrier matrix. Optionally, the active ingredients are dispersed using intestinal moisture absorbed into the pill via a semi-permeable wall section (14).
