MedRaksha – understand your medicines, pay less, be heard
A free health companion for patients and families in India.
- Scan a prescription – every medicine explained in simple words: what it is for, how to take it, what to watch for.
- Find cheaper medicines – type the name on your strip (like Telmisartan 40 or Pan 40) and see the Jan Aushadhi (PMBJP) generic with the same salt and strength, at the official price-list rate. According to the Government of India, Jan Aushadhi medicines cost 50–80% less than branded ones.
- Patient Circle – share real experiences with medicines, hospitals and costs, ask questions, and raise your voice.
- My Health – prescriptions, medicine reminders and your family's medicines in one place.
- Your language – English, Hindi and other Indian languages.
Before buying: check the salt, the strength, and whether the name says ER, SR or XR. Prices can change – confirm with your nearest Kendra or pharmacist.
