I have hyperhidrosis (a fancy term for excessive sweating). When I was a teenager (and before all answers to everything were online), I went to multiple docs and no one was aware of a particular prescription that, once I found out about it, completely "cured" the issue (Drysol). Looking back, it was obvious the doctors just weren't aware of a valid treatment for the issue. It'd be great if a service like this helps d…

I had a fever on a trip in africa where it felt like sweat was pouring out of my skin and it was incredibly uncomfortable
Agree with the first part enough that I wouldn't even want the near association :)
I’m not really looking to buy, but given both my own job and that of my wife, I am curious. After reading your description, and watching the video on you website, I can safely say: I have no idea what service you provide. Adding example question might help. In Denmark the government office for medicin provide a free service where you’re able to look up all approved drugs, their usage, side effects, treatment plan and…
Sorry it didn’t land with you. We’re constantly torn between writing for the one person (a healthcare provider) vs a larger population. An example question is a fantastic idea and will land with both audiences :-) We’ll get our top three most recent on the homepage ASAP but in the meantime: If you have a typical late stage COVID patient, a static patient resource like you described is perfectly fine to look at effica…

Now, info travels fast, but there’s so much info coming at us, we choke on it.
Totally relate to your story, I come from rural India and saw many patients misdiagnosed for this same reason. This is exactly why we’re building InpharmD.
"We think Watson was a missed opportunity, so we called our algorithm Sherlock." Agree with the first part enough that I wouldn't even want the near association :)
When Sherlock is older we may let him go by his middle name

I can understand this take, many docs don’t like to ask questions at all. But there’s a new school type of doc that realizes how vast the medical literature is (20m studies), how quickly it’s changing (20,000 just added on COVID), and has tons of questions. All medical references were essentially converted to SAAS products from large books- so they’re thousands of pages covering the mainstream topics, and they answer…
> Health systems employ clinical pharmacists to answer the other 1/2 with evidence because it’s insanely high ROI for them to do so (5M/ pharmacist/ year/ hospital). I didn't know this. In that case, software is probably way more scalable than hiring more and more pharmacists.
It seems a bit wrong to target this to doctors exclusively. Is it just because the cost of your service would be prohibitive for someone not using this professionally? Anyway, I'm not a doctor but one of those types that love looking into everything themselves. I'd be interested in having access to something like this for my personal research.
The reason every patient knows of the Physicians Desk Reference is because they believe their doc relies on the PDR.
In just 10 years I’ve seen the doctor go from being the top of the patient care hierarchy to the patient on top (not coincidentally DTC ads have blown up). We think there are a lot like you, and soon, we’ll make our tool publicly available.

Typical dose of dexamethasone is 6 mg not 4 mg. And only in severe cases needing oxygen, not early.
