Medicine ingredient system?
Post Content
Hi, apologies if I'm in the wrong subreddit for this. new account specifically for this question 27F I have some very severe allergies to certain chemicals and ingredients (main ones being mint, menthol, and anything derived from them). This causes me to be allergic to a lot of medicines out there. However I also have several other medical issues that are most commonly solved with medications that have menthol in them So my question is this: Is there an app or program you use (that I, someone not in the medical field, can access) that tells you of specific ingredients in medicines? And/or that can give you a breakdown of the ingredients? I know it's a thing in some capacity, because I had a doctor once whose company's healthcare software program would compare prescribed medicines to listed allergies. And it doesn't seem like a common program, as I'm constantly prescribed things I'm allergic to by my doctors since it would help me out a lot if such a thing exists. Chemistry is my worst subject, and the research I have to put into every possible medicine is limited by what little I understand about chemical creations
