Abstract
We frequently have extra medicine left behind. Many times, we do not use the entire amount of medicine from a bottle or a strip and are left wondering what to do with them. On the other side, there are many individuals who require such costly medications for their therapy yet are unable to afford to purchase them. There is also a need to provide people with the medical equipments that they might need after undergoing critical surgeries or if they have any kind of physical disability (temporary or permanent. A common tactic to fill the current gap is to donate medical equipment to low-resource areas, but documented experience and reviews are lacking. It has previously been noted that there are difficulties, including infrastructure gaps, a lack of technological and maintenance capabilities, and a lack of prioritisation of necessary supplies.
Our goal is to recycle medicines and otherwise costly mobility equipments in order to reduce medical waste and the costs associated with treating the underprivileged community.
We can use the strength of internet technology and its vast network, by which individuals can assist each other with just a few clicks, to satisfy the growing need for advances in healthcare facilities and services.
