Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method and an electronic pill (20) for the administration of at least one drug (3) to a patient, wherein the delivery profile of the drug is determined according to at least one individual parameter of the patient. The individual parameter may particularly relate to the genotype (GEN) or phenotype of the patient and for example comprise the distribution of proteins in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Optionally, the individual parameter may be adjusted based on measurements by the electronic pill or external devices during its passage through the gastrointestinal tract.
