The present invention relates to a computer-implemented method for preparing multiple dosage forms with personalised composition, comprising the following steps:(i) a
control unit generates an input protocol of a personalised composition of a multiple
dosage form, containing information about the type and amount of individual active substances, the type of
cartridge, and the type and number of capsules;(ii) a
cartridge of the required type according to the input protocol, labelled with a specific
machine-readable code, is placed in the automatic
transport system;(iii) at least two different types of sub-units are placed into at least two dosing stations, the sub-unit having sizes in the range of from 0.1 to 4 mm, and containing a different
active ingredient and / or different amounts of the same
active ingredient and / or having coatings with different
solubility and / or possibly containing different pharmaceutical excipients according to the input protocol;(iv) a pre-defined number of
capsule bodies is placed in the
cartridge placed in an automatic
transport system;(v) the automatic
transport system transports the cartridge with capsules to the first dosing
station, which doses a pre-defined number of the first sub-units into the
capsule bodies placed in the cartridge;(vi) the automatic transport
system transports the cartridge with capsules to the next dosing
station, which doses a pre-defined number of the next sub-units into the
capsule bodies placed in the cartridge; and this step is repeated according to the input protocol until the capsules are filled with all of the pre-defined types of sub-units;(vii) the capsules are closed with caps;(viii) the
quality control of capsules and discarding of the non-compliant ones;(ix) packaging and
labelling with a
batch number.The present invention further relates to a device for carrying out this method.
