THE NEED
Polypharmacy, especially among elderly patients, leads to unnecessary medication use, adverse effects, and avoidable hospitalizations. Current medication review processes are complex, time-consuming, and often incomplete due to unstructured data and fragmented workflows. There is a clear need for an efficient, digital decision-support tool.
THE SOLUTION
The web app consolidates medication data into an intuitive platform that visualizes purchase patterns, adverse events, and interactions, enabling quick and accurate reviews. Integrated with the national prescription register (FMK), the tool ensures data accuracy and supports personalized pharmacotherapy. Clinical trials of the prototype have shown reduced workload, improved documentation, and better patient outcomes.

PROJECT SUMMARY
A user-friendly web app designed to simplify and enhance medication reviews by providing physicians with structured, real-time overviews of medication lists, purchase patterns, and potential risks. The tool aims to reduce inappropriate polypharmacy, improve patient outcomes, and lower healthcare costs.
CLINICAL IMPACT
The web app helps reduce medication-related harm, hospital admissions, and adverse drug events by enabling faster and more accurate medication reviews. Physicians can identify and discontinue inappropriate prescriptions, leading to safer treatments and improved patient quality of life. For healthcare systems, it streamlines workflows, improves documentation, and lowers overall medication and hospitalization costs.
