Diagnosia, a search engine for medications


TechCrunch has a short piece about Diagnosia receiving start-up funds for their search engine.


Diagnosia basically aggregates those little leaflets you find in packets of prescription drugs and puts them online in a user friendly and accessible format across multiple formats and languages. The attraction to doctors is that none of this information is usually online, so this makes it way asier for them.

They note that similar services are already offered by Rxlist, Drugs.com and Epocrates.
