Medicine preparation method and medicine preparation apparatus

A system for preparing medicines comprising:

• a medicine packet, having a pre-determined width (W2), enclosing a pill;
• a supporting part on which the medicine packet is mounted;
• and
• a pressing part configured to press the medicine packet against the supporting part to crush the pill,
• wherein the pressing part comprises a pressure surface configured to apply an impact to the medicine packet when the medicine packet is pressed by the pressing part,
• wherein the pressure surface comprises one or more steps dividing the pressure surface into a plurality of impact surfaces, each having a different height relative to the supporting part such that at least one portion of the medicine packet is not in contact with the pressure surface when the medicine packet is pressed by the pressing part,
• wherein a distance between each one of the plurality of impact surfaces and the supporting part sequentially increases or decreases in one direction,
• wherein among the plurality of impact surfaces, a bottom-level impact surface, which is separated from the supporting part by the smallest distance between the plurality of impact surfaces and the supporting part, has a predetermined width (W1) that is parallel to the predetermined width (W2) of the medicine packet mounted on the supporting part, and
• wherein the predetermined width (W1) of the bottom-level impact surface is less than the predetermined width (W2) of the medicine packet.
