Medication Review & Advice in Da Nang

Who is it for?

Older people on several medicines at once; patients just discharged with a long prescription they do not fully understand; foreign visitors who brought medication from home or need an equivalent available in Vietnam; families worried about doubled-up doses, missed doses or the wrong pill at the wrong time.

How it works

1. 1Send photos of the prescription and of the boxes you are using
2. 2Talk it through by video call or at home — existing conditions, allergies, how you actually take them
3. 3We check for duplicate ingredients, interactions and doses appropriate to age and kidney or liver function
4. 4You get a plain, hour-by-hour medication schedule and a list of signs to report to a doctor
