The traditional way of buying over-the-counter medicines and topical treatments often
leads to long waits and visiting physical stores. This can be quite inconvenient and time- consuming for those needing quick access to essential health products like liniment and
ointment. The project aimed to design, fabricate, test, and evaluate a Liniment/Ointment Vending Machine specifically for the TUP Manila campus. The Development of a Liniment/Ointment Vending Machine for TUP Manila Campus aims to provide a quick, effective, and readily available solution for staff, instructors, and students in need of
liniments or ointments. This vending machine is designed to be user-friendly, cost- efficient, and easy to operate. By placing an automatic feature in the purchasing process,
this will save time and effort for an individual to purchase, enabling them to quickly retrieve products without having to leave the campus or queue a long line in the store. The prototype was evaluated by 50 participants from the TUP Manila Campus. Evaluation criteria included functionality, workability, safety, aesthetics, and economy, which resulted in an impressive overall mean score of 4.59, categorized as "Highly Acceptable". From the findings of this evaluation, this project has the potential to enhance efficiency for those at the TUP Manila Campus by providing a vending machine option instead of waiting in line at traditional pharmacies.
