Zusammenfassung:The presently disclosed device includes a plurality of vials each bearing a unique identifier and in discrete locations in the device. An alignment assembly aligns one of the discrete locations with an access point for dispensing one of the vials. Computer executable instructions select a vial to be dispensed and store inventory information of the vials. The inventory information associates the unique identifiers with a status for each the plurality of vials indicating whether a vial is: loaded, dispensed, returned, or remaining undispensed in the device. The computer executable instructions also deactivate dispensing of the vials from the device based on at least one signal received from at least one environmental sensor configured to detect one of: location, temperature, humidity, vibration, shock, blood alcohol content (BAC), and light intrusion. A deactivation assembly deactivates dispensing of the vials based on the instructions.
