Abstract
Medicines were essential part in looking after wellbeing, averting ailment, overseeing,
interminable conditions and curing sickness. Unsurpassed Medicine (ATM) is a machine
which conveys the medication in crisis cases and guarantee accessibility of medications 24x7
and thus the name "Record breaking Medicine". ATM will be extremely valuable in sparing
life if there should arise an occurrence of a mischance on parkways, remote ranges,
provincial territories and spots where therapeutic stores are not inside the compass in event
of crisis. In any event, first help can be made effectively open with the assistance of this
framework. This venture comprises of Advanced RISC Machine (ARM) processor which
controls other sub frameworks, for example, RFID Reader, Global System for Mobile
correspondence (GSM), pharmaceutical allocator, and stock control. RFID tag identifies the
specific client. GSM sends message to stock control when the solutions should be refill.
Pharmaceutical allocator is the capacity part of the machine which stores prescription.

Keywords: ARM, GSM, RFID, RELAY.
