Startup Idea : Improving noncompliance

Patient will need to register an account and it will be linked to the specific pharmacy where the patient buys any medication. The pharmacist can then insert the information including the name of the medication, time recommended to take the medication, frequency of taking the medication, duration of taking the medication. Those information will then be encrypted and stored over the cloud and synchronised with the patient’s account where those informations will be shown. On the patient’s smartphone, the information will automatically be interpreted and reminder to take the relevant medication will be set. When the time to take the medication is up, alarm of the phone will ring and an interface will show up and patient will be asked to select medication taken or not taken. The pharmacist will also have access to the data on compliance of the patient. In the app, the patient will also have the option to report any side effects encountered while taking the medication and rate it as urgent, major discomfort or minor discomfort. These data will be visible to the pharmacist so that any necessary amendment can be made.
