The big idea
Big pharmacies use AI bots to handle refills, check drug interactions, and answer common questions. They free up real pharmacists for harder calls.
Some examples
- Useful for: scheduling refills and finding stock at nearby stores.
- Useful for: simple drug interaction lookups.
- NOT useful for: deciding if YOU should take something new.
- Real pharmacist > bot for any change in your meds.
Try it!
Next time you have a med question, ask the bot first — then ask a real pharmacist and compare.
