Future pharmacy as a plug-and-play ecosystem

Description
ForPharmacy aims to develop telepharmacy solutions to promote new pharmacy services, focused on well-being and disease prevention, remote health management, and medication therapy management. This project will contribute to the creation of a new concept, where the pharmacy is presented as a hub of personalized health, promoting the integration of information between different healthcare professionals, patients, and devices. This will be based on machines learning techniques and IoT technology for remote monitoring of patients. Therefore, the project will address a societal area of concern which is the improvement of health care systems.

The main objective of the project is to expand access to pharmacy care, through the development of services that detect drug-supplement interactions, misuse of antimicrobials or self-management of chronic diseases. Furthermore, it aims to create a decision support system based on machine learning algorithms to support the decision-making of health professionals and ensure patient safety. Together with a service for monitoring the correct and safe medication, end users of the ForPharmacy solution will benefit from an improved, simpler and safer healthcare service.
