Problem Statement: Medication Mismanagement in India 1. Non-Adherence Risks: - 60–70% of Indian patients with chronic diseases (e.g., diabetes, hypertension) fail to adhere to prescriptions, worsening outcomes and driving avoidable healthcare costs of ₹1.5 trillion annually(Assocham, 2022). Elderly populations (projected to reach 194 million by 2031) are disproportionately affected due to affordability gaps and lack of awareness. 2. Human Error: - Manual tracking dominates rural and semi-urban India, where low health literacy (only 33% of Indians understand basic health terms, NFHS-5) leads to missed doses or overdosing. A 2023 study in IJCPfound 45% of prescriptions in India had errors in dosage/frequency.
