Abstract: An information processing apparatus and method are provided. A medication history display image has a medication history plot displaying region provided thereon, and medication history information is plot-displayed in a time series on a time axis in the medication history plot displaying region. At this time, medication history information of other dispensing dates is displayed in a display form according to a relation with medication history information of a current dispensing date. In particular, for example, in response to a relation to medication history information of the current dispensing date, same medicine information, contraindication-for-coadministration information, precaution-for-coadministration information or the like is displayed as the medication history information of the other dispensing dates.

Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus and method as well as a program that make it possible to grasp information more rapidly. A medication history display image has a medication history plot displaying region provided thereon, and medication history information is plot-displayed in a time series on a time axis in the medication history plot displaying region. At this time, medication history information of other dispensing dates is displayed in a display form according to a relation with medication history information of a current dispensing date. In particular, for example, in response to a relation to medication history information of the current dispensing date, same medicine information, contraindication-for-coadministration information, precaution-for-coadministration information or the like is displayed as the medication history information of the other dispensing dates. Consequently, it becomes possible to more rapidly and intuitively grasp necessary information.
