1. Not a Substitute for Emergency Care

Meddicare provides online consultations for non-emergency sexual and reproductive health concerns. Our platform is not suitable for medical emergencies, acute severe symptoms, chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe bleeding, or any condition requiring immediate physical examination.

2. Limitations of Teleconsultation

Online consultations have inherent limitations compared to in-person examination. Doctors on our platform:

  • Cannot physically examine you
  • Rely on information you provide — accurate reporting is essential for good care
  • May refer you for in-person examination if required
  • Practice within India's Telemedicine Practice Guidelines 2020 (MoH&FW)

3. Information Accuracy

Medical information on our platform is provided for educational purposes by qualified doctors. It is general information and may not apply to your specific situation. Always discuss your specific symptoms with a doctor before making health decisions.

4. Prescription Medications

Prescription medicines dispensed through Meddicare are based on a teleconsultation. You must use medicines exactly as prescribed. Misuse of prescription medicines can be harmful and is illegal. If you experience adverse effects, stop the medicine and seek immediate medical attention.

5. Lab Results

Diagnostic test results must be interpreted by a qualified doctor in the context of your full medical history. Do not self-diagnose based on lab results. Book a follow-up consultation to discuss your results.
