Medicatio

Looking for information about a medicine? MEDICATIO will help you find your way among the plethora of pharmaceuticals on the market and equip you with the knowledge you need to talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

It covers:

  • active and inactive (as excipients) ingredients 
  • drugs with similar effects 
  • instructions for use 
  • side effects 
  • the medical condition(s) for which each medicine is prescribed.

The information it provides is far more detailed than what you'll find in the standard instructions for use.

The app (currently under testing) is available in French, with more language versions on the way soon. Its list of medicines is mainly based on those available in France.

Look out for the new version, with even more useful features!

MEDICATIO won the EU Datathon 2018 challenge, "EU open data — for more innovation in Europe".
