Five, ten, twelve medicines. Which one is doing this?

When you take a handful of pills every morning, a new symptom is a mystery. Is the stomach trouble the new blood pressure pill? The antibiotic? The magnesium? Nobody hands you a list of what your medicines have in common.

After his surgery, a family member came home with twelve prescriptions and weeks of stomach trouble that nobody could explain. Written out side by side, six of those twelve medicines listed the same side effect. That was the question his doctor needed to hear, and it took two minutes to find.

MedCheck puts all of it on one page, in plain words, so you can walk in with a real question instead of a guess.
