New tool may offer prescription ‘safety net’ and reduce the 237m medication errors made each year in England

A new AI tool developed at Oxford University aims to tackle both those problems. DrugGPT offers a safety net for clinicians when they prescribe medicines and gives them information that may help their patients better understand why and how to take them.
