A plurality of sensors aligned with syringe markings are connected to a display unit configured to identify syringe type and dosage measurement. A keypad with numerical inputs and a start button enables entry of prescribed dosage values. A plunger mechanism mechanically linked to the syringe slot is actuated to draw medicine in response to keypad input. A control unit operatively connects the keypad, sensors, and plunger mechanism, monitors fluid levels, and triggers a stop mechanism once the desired dosage is reached. An alert system integrated with the control unit and display unit provides real time notification of dosage deviations, thereby ensuring accurate, safe, and reliable medication delivery."
