Accepted Answer

PharmKulen is designed for two main user groups: patients searching for medicines and pharmacy owners managing their business. Patients can search for free, while pharmacies need to register for an account to access the management portal. We also offer a Telegram Mini App for convenient mobile access.

Question 6

How do I search for a medicine?

Simply enter the medicine name, brand, or active ingredient in the search box on our homepage. Enable location services when prompted so we can show you nearby pharmacies. Our AI understands various spellings, brand names, and generic names across multiple languages. You can also use our Premium feature to scan prescription images.

Question 7

Why does PharmKulen need my location?

Accepted Answer

We use your location to show you pharmacies near you with the medicine you're searching for. This helps you find the closest available option and estimate travel time. Your location is only used for search purposes and is not stored permanently. You can also manually search by area if you prefer not to share your location.

Question 8

How accurate is the medicine availability information?

Accepted Answer

Pharmacy inventory is updated in real-time through our management system. When a pharmacy makes a sale or receives new stock, the information is immediately reflected in search results. However, we recommend calling the pharmacy before visiting to confirm availability, especially for urgent needs, as stock can change quickly.

Question 9

Can I search for both brand name and generic medicines?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Our AI-powered search understands both brand names and generic names (active ingredients). When you search for a brand name, we'll also show generic alternatives and vice versa. Each result clearly indicates whether it's a brand or generic medicine, along with the active ingredients.

Question 10

How often is medicine information updated?

Accepted Answer

Medicine availability is updated in real-time as pharmacies process sales and receive inventory. Pricing information is updated by pharmacies as needed. We also regularly update our medicine database with new medications, dosage forms, and generic equivalents to ensure comprehensive search results.

Question 11

What's included in the Premium plan?

Accepted Answer

Premium subscribers get AI-powered prescription scanning (OCR), unlimited search history, advanced filters, multi-pharmacy price comparison, stock alerts for out-of-stock medicines, priority customer support, and ad-free experience. Premium is designed for frequent users who want the most efficient medicine search experience.

Question 21

What should I do if I don't find results for my medicine?

Accepted Answer
