KnowYourMeds is a digital health app that uses the world's largest database of suspected side/adverse effects along with AI driven insights to inform patients and improve health outcomes through better adherence, early identification of drug interactions and early detection of potential medication errors.Every year, millions of patients show up at Emergency Rooms with medicine related issues, and over 40% of these cases are shown to be preventable if only the patient had better access to information (digital as well as human interactions).Medicine related incidents arise from multiple reasons:1) Adverse reactions to drug/s being taken2) Self-medication to treat adverse reactions rather than seeking help for underlying causes3) Interactions between various drugs being taken4) Adverse drug interactions with diets, alcohol5) Dosage instructions not followed properly6) Duplication of drugs being taken due to lack of knowledge 7) Wrong drug being taken, especially self-medication with OTC drugs8) Drug overdoses, either due to addiction or lack of knowledge9) Lack of compliance – forgetfulness, distractions, changes in routines KnowYourMeds is available on the iPhone, iPad and Android devices as well as at www.knowyourmeds.com
