maMEDS full meaning

What does maMEDS mean?

Our name is no coincidence; it derives from the initials of Medication Adherence Management & Educational Services and fully reflects the mission and vision of our company. Our goal is a holistic approach to medication management, combining technology with education, strengthening collaboration with healthcare professionals, and placing the patient at the center of everything we do.

maMEDS also refers to the expression “ma meds” or “my meds,” emphasising the patient’s own control over their medication regimen. Through innovative services and the use of digital tools, patients gain the necessary support to effectively organize and manage their medications, ensuring better therapeutic outcomes. At the same time, healthcare professionals can play a more active and supportive role by monitoring and improving patient adherence.

Management and Education

The concept of Management covers the entire process: from receiving medications and organising them (in personalised pill organisers — mM Planners), ensuring their correct and timely intake (via the digital app), and ultimately achieving the therapeutic outcome.

Education (Educational Services) is the second key pillar of our philosophy. Without education for all those involved in medication management, improving adherence is not feasible. Education is not only for patients but also extends to their caregivers and healthcare professionals. At the same time, we aim to raise public awareness about the critical issue of medication adherence. Through educational tools and information, we lay the foundation for understanding the importance of proper medication intake.

The innovation of maMEDS lies in the connection between patients, healthcare professionals, and institutions. We do not focus solely on patients, nor do we replace healthcare professionals.

On the contrary, we recognise that non-adherence to medication is a multifactorial problem that requires a holistic approach:

  • The contribution of pharmacists, who can offer additional support through personalized services.

  • The use of digital tools, such as mobile apps and digital platforms, which enhance the process.

  • Education and guidance so that all involved are well-informed.

  • Public awareness.

Innovation and Technology

The maMEDS solution consists of three key pillars:

  • maMEDS Mobile Application — A tool for patients to properly manage their medications. It provides personalised reminders for medication intake times, records potential side effects, allows adherence tracking, reminds users to renew prescriptions, and offers essential information about their medications.

  • maMEDS Web Platform — A tool for healthcare professionals to effectively and securely organize their patients’ medications, monitor adherence levels and side effects, and intervene if necessary.

  • mM Planner — Personalized pill organizers that help patients organize their medications.

maMEDS is not just a company offering a single product or service — it is a vision for the future of healthcare. Our goal is to change the way patients manage their medication. It is a shift in mindset. We place the patient at the center of medication management, providing them with the tools they need to feel confident and secure. At the same time, we strengthen the role of the pharmacist and healthcare professional, creating a network of support and innovation. We bring technology to the side of both patients and healthcare professionals, offering innovative services that improve the lives of everyone involved in medication management and organization.

Welcome to the world of maMEDS:
A world where medication becomes more effective, more human, and more accessible.
