Many patients do not have access to medications and on the other hand drugs often expire at healthcare provider facilities, resulting in wasted medication. Our inspiration stems from a desire to combat this problem at a feasible level.
Our project aims to redistribute unopened and near expiry medications at lower prices to patients that belong to lower socio economic background
- MongoDB for Data Persistence
- NodeJS for web framework
- HTML for structuring data
- CSS and JS for client side UI changes
- Express, node framework
- Python for Image recognition
A pharmacist with near expiry medicines can list them on our web application. Anybody who requires a medicine can look it up on our web app and make a selection after which he will be required to upload the prescription which will be automatically authenticated. By bridging the gap between pharmacist with surplus near expiry medicines and a patient in need of them this app will have a 3 fold impact-
- Reducing/eliminating wastage of medicines which get expired and thus revenue
- Providing low cost medicines to someone who needs them
- Reducing environmental degradation which would have occurred due to disposal of expired drugs
