Medical Disclaimer
DawaiScan provides AI-assisted medicine information for awareness purposes only. Please read this disclaimer carefully before using the app or website.
1. For Informational Purposes Only
All content provided by DawaiScan — including medicine identification results, prescription summaries, dosage information, side effect lists, and drug interaction warnings — is intended for general informational and educational purposes only. It does not constitute medical advice and must not be treated as such.
2. No Doctor-Patient Relationship
Use of DawaiScan does not create a doctor-patient relationship between you and DawaiScan or any of its employees, contractors, or affiliated medical reviewers. No information provided through the app or website should be relied upon to make medical decisions without first consulting a licensed healthcare professional.
3. AI Accuracy Limitations
DawaiScan uses artificial intelligence and image recognition to identify medicines. While we strive for accuracy, AI systems can make errors. Medicine identification results may be affected by:
- Poor image quality or lighting conditions
- Damaged, worn, or non-standard packaging
- Regional or brand-specific labelling variations
- Generic medicines with similar appearances
- New or rare medicines not yet in our database
Always verify any medicine identification result by checking the original packaging, consulting the pharmacist who dispensed the medicine, or asking your doctor.
4. Emergency Situations
DawaiScan is not an emergency medical service. If you or someone else is experiencing a medical emergency — including suspected poisoning, overdose, allergic reaction, or any life-threatening condition — call your local emergency services immediately (India: 112 or 108) and do not rely on this app.
5. Prescription Information
Prescription scan summaries provided by DawaiScan are AI-generated interpretations designed to help patients better understand their prescription. They are not a replacement for the instructions given by your prescribing doctor or dispensing pharmacist. Dosage, frequency, and duration shown in the app should always be confirmed against the original prescription and your doctor's verbal instructions.
6. Drug Interactions and Allergies
DawaiScan may display information about potential drug interactions or known allergens. However, this information is general in nature and does not account for your complete medical history, current medications, or individual health conditions. Only a healthcare professional with full knowledge of your medical history can properly assess drug interactions and allergic risks for you personally.
7. Database Limitations
Our medicine database is reviewed by medical professionals and updated regularly. However, medicine formulations, recommended dosages, and approved uses change over time. DawaiScan cannot guarantee that all information is current, complete, or applicable in every region of India. Drug regulations and approved indications may vary by state.
8. No Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, DawaiScan and its founders, employees, and advisors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or reliance on, any information provided through the app or website — including but not limited to damages resulting from medical decisions made based on app content.
9. Seek Professional Advice
We strongly encourage all users to:
- Consult a registered medical practitioner for any health concern
- Not self-medicate based solely on app results
- Complete full antibiotic courses as prescribed, even if symptoms improve
- Inform your doctor of all medicines you are currently taking
- Read the patient information leaflet included with every medicine
