  • Abstract:
  • In contemporary society, where rapid advancements in healthcare intersect with the complexities of medication regimens, ensuring accessible and reliable information about pharmaceuticals is paramount. However, patients frequently encounter obstacles in comprehending the intricacies of medication usage, thereby heightening health risks and fostering misunderstandings. To confront this challenge, we introduce an inventive solution in the form of an Android application harnessing Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. This application is designed to empower users by seamlessly scanning tablet packet names and subsequently furnishing comprehensive medication insights in both written and vocal formats. This research paper elucidates the development and functionality of our innovative Android application, aimed at bolstering medication literacy among diverse demographics. Through a meticulous examination of user-interface design, OCR integration, and data dissemination mechanisms, we showcase the application's efficacy in bridging the chasm between patients and pertinent pharmaceutical information. By amalgamating cutting-edge OCR capabilities with user-centric design principles, our application endeavors to mitigate the challenges associated with medication comprehension, thereby fostering informed decision-making and enhancing patient well-being. Moreover, this paper delves into the broader implications of our solution within the context of contemporary healthcare dynamics. By elucidating the potential ramifications on patient empowerment, medication adherence, and healthcare outcomes, we underscore the significance of technological interventions in augmenting medication literacy and fostering a symbiotic relationship between patients and pharmaceutical information. Through empirical evaluations and user feedback analysis, we substantiate the practical utility and user acceptance of our Android application, thereby advocating for its integration within healthcare ecosystems to engender a paradigm shift towards enhanced medication comprehension and patient-centric care delivery.
