MediAlert: Medicine Management Made Easy

MediAlert is here to help you stop wasting medicine and make sure more people can get what they need.

India has a big issue with medicines going bad. Tons of meds end up expiring in homes, clinics, and pharmacies each year. The World Health Organization figures that up to 10% of medicines are wasted in countries that are still growing. At the same time, lots of families with little money find it hard to pay for important medicines. Many homes have drawers stuffed with expired pills and syrups, which can be risky to take and bad for the environment if thrown out the wrong way.

MediAlert aims to fix this. Consider it a “healthcare tracker”—a simple way to keep track of your meds, get reminders, and give away medicines before they expire. Just scan your medicines or put them in the app, and MediAlert does the rest by sending you alerts, connecting you with donation places, and giving you tips on how to throw away medicines safely.

What Makes MediAlert Special?

Unlike simple reminder apps, MediAlert puts expiry alerts, donations, and disposal all in one spot.

It assists pharmacies to get rid of stock that's about to expire by offering discounts or donating.

It links homes with charities to give away safe, unused medicines to people who need them.

It pushes for safe disposal methods to lower harm to the environment.

What We Offer

Reminders about when your medicines expire.

A place for pharmacies to keep track of their stock.

A way to donate extra medicines to charities.

Tips on how to safely throw away medicines to avoid harm.

Computer-generated ideas for cheaper options if your medicine is close to expiring.

Why I Care

I’ve seen medicines pile up at my place and even get used after they expired since no one was keeping track. I’ve also watched family members struggle to pay for costly medicines each month. This problem hit me — waste on one side, need on the other. MediAlert is how I'm trying to fix things, making sure medicines are used in a good, safe, and affordable way.

Who Wins?

Households that have many medicines to keep track of.

Pharmacies that want to avoid lost product.

Families with small budgets who need cheaper medicines.

Charities that give out medicines.

The environment, thanks to safer disposal.

MediAlert is not just an app but an effort to cut waste, save cash, and make healthcare more available.
