A method and apparatus for assembling a plurality of independently formed solid components is provided thereby forming a single delivery vehicle for a pharmaceutical or pharmaceutical-like product. The solid components can be held and fed to the apparatus via a plurality of magazines. Pusher rods and the like can be used for positioning each of the solid components. Where the components are connected via a bonding liquid, a sprayer is provided and compression pins or the like press the components with the bonding liquid together to form the final project. A rivet or other connection structure can also be used and driven through holes in each of the solid components to form the final product.

Machine and method for pharmaceutical and pharmaceutical-like product assembly

A pharmaceutical and pharmaceutical-like product is provided. The product provides a plurality of components having active agents that are delivered in a single delivery entity or vehicle. The product allows for selective control of the release rates of each of the active agents while still being delivered in a single product.

Method of producing a pharmaceutical product

Generally the method involves identifying the concentration of each of two or more active therapeutics tailored to treat a particular patient's unique metabolism and one or more diseases, communicating that information to a producer who has multiple fixed or variable concentrations of each active available, where the producer then combines the individual concentrations of each active into single units such as a tablets or pills, and distributes those indirectly or directly to the patient.
