Medication errors and difficulty accessing reliabledrug information remain significant challenges in modern healthcare.MediLens is an AI-powered web-based medicine informationand assistance system designed to provide accurate,accessible, and easy-to-understand medication details for users.The system integrates Optical Character Recognition (OCR) toidentify medicines from images of drug labels or packaging andretrieves verified information from trusted biomedical databases.Natural Language Processing (NLP) and a cloud-based LargeLanguage Model (LLM) are used to generate contextual summariesand answer user queries through an interactive conversationalassistant. The backend is implemented using the FastAPIframework and communicates with external knowledge sourcesand AI services through secure API integration. MediLens followsa modular architecture that includes OCR processing, informationretrieval, and AI-driven response generation to ensurescalability and reliability. Core functionalities include medicineidentification from images, structured drug information retrieval,automated summarization, and interactive question answering.By combining retrieval-based verification with conversationalAI, MediLens aims to improve public health literacy, reducemisinformation about medications, and demonstrate the practicalapplication of artificial intelligence in healthcare informationsystems.
