Community Access to Effective Antibiotics (COM-WATCH) Mobile Application

completed

The COM-WATCH mobile application is designed to combat the circulation of fake antibiotics and shortages of genuine medicines in communities. It allows community members to verify the authenticity of antibiotics, monitor drug stocks in real time, and helps patent medicine vendors, agro-vets, community pharmacists, and health workers manage their stock. The app uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to verify drugs against the NAFDAC Greenbook and generates data for regulators to monitor antibiotic supply and detect fake drugs.
