Abstract
The electronic management of drug treatment can provide means for prescription expenditure control as well as improve the medication process of patients and reduce the risk of adverse drug events. This paper presents the design and implementation details of a mobile platform based on Android OS that can be used for assistive medication management. The presented system is intended for physicians, pharmacists, health managers and patients, enabling not only medication prescribing but personalized treatment monitoring as well, which involves the issuing of alerts and reminders.
