  • Publication number: 20140088982
    Abstract: A method for using receipt data to identify medication conflicts is disclosed. The method may begin with linking, by a computer system, a human customer to a first substance. Subsequently, the computer system may initiate a purchase transaction involving the human customer. During the transaction, the computer system may identify a second substance forming part of the purchase transaction. Accordingly, the computer system may find, within a conflicts database, a conflict between the first and second substances. The conflict may correspond to an undesirable effect produced by simultaneous use of the first and second substances. The computer system may then alert the human customer to the conflict.
