Medication Guide

An open-source, free-to-use, interactive tool assisting you in choosing the appropriate over-the-counter medication based on your individual symptoms and risks.

How it works

The recommendation algorithm uses a scoring system defined in the questions.ts file. Each answer and medication is assigned a value that reflects its impact: A score of 0 generally suggests the medication may be harmful or ineffective, 0.5 indicates a neutral effect, and 1 signifies that it is both effective and safe. Based on the user's responses, the algorithm calculates a total score and recommends the medication with the highest overall rating.
