Medicament information system and method

A mobile device for tracking a status of a medicament device by a mobile device, the device comprising:

• a communications interface;
• a memory;
• and
• a processor in communication with the communications interface and the memory, wherein the processor is configured to:
• receive information regarding a medicament device, the information comprising location information and expiration information,
• determine a current location of the mobile device,
• determine, based on comparing the current location to the location information, that the medicament device is within a predetermined distance from the mobile device,
• determine, based on the received expiration information, that the medicament device is currently associated with an expiration event,
• output, to the user of the mobile device and via an operating system element configured to output notifications from multiple different applications, an expiration alarm indicating the expiration event in response to determining that the medicament device is within a predetermined distance from the mobile device and that the medicament device is currently associated with an expiration event,
• receive, from the user, a request to display a map of a geographic area,
• display, via a non-operating system application, the map of the geographic area, and
• display an alert icon on the map, wherein the location of the icon on the map is based on the received location information.

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium encoded with instructions for execution by a mobile device for tracking a status of a medicament device, the medium comprising:

• instructions for receiving, by the mobile device, information regarding a medicament device, the information comprising location information and expiration information;
• instructions for determining a current location of the mobile device;
• instructions for determining, based on comparing the current location to the location information, that the medicament device is within a predetermined distance from the mobile device;
• instructions for determining, based on the received expiration information, that the medicament device is currently associated with an expiration event;
• instructions for outputting, to the user of the mobile device and via an operating system element of the mobile device configured to output notifications from multiple different applications, an expiration alarm indicating the expiration event in response to determining that the medicament device is within a predetermined distance from the mobile device and that the medicament device is currently associated with an expiration event;
• instructions for receiving, from the user, a request to display a map of a geographic area;
• instructions for displaying, by the mobile device and via a non-operating system application, the map of the geographic area;
• and
• instructions for displaying an alert icon on the map, wherein the location of the icon on the map is based on the received location information.
