## What is Badeel Rx?

The brand is out of stock, or it costs more than the patient can pay. You have about thirty seconds to find something else.

Badeel Rx searches by active ingredient, not by brand. Look up any medicine and see every product built on the same molecule — matched on strength and form, and ranked by what the patient actually saves.

DRUG ALTERNATIVES AND PRICES IN EGYPT

- Over 25,000 medicines sold in Egypt, every one of them priced
- 6,544 active ingredients, so you find the molecule and not just a name
- Alternatives ranked by saving, filtered to the same strength and form
- Price per unit as well as per pack, so a cheap box is not mistaken for a cheap course
- The full record: price, strength, form, route, manufacturer, pharmacological class
- Browse by therapeutic category, or search Arabic and English trade names

DOSING, RENAL ADJUSTMENT AND MECHANISM OF ACTION

- Label dosing grouped by indication and split for adults and children
- Renal dose modification, including CrCl bands and dialysis notes where the label gives them
- Mechanism of action for the molecule you are holding
- Every clinical statement carries its source — DailyMed, FDA labelling, Drugs.com, EMC, StatPearls — and links out

DRUG INTERACTION CHECKER

- Add several medicines to a basket and check them together before dispensing
- Nearly 6,000 interaction pairs, graded contraindicated, major, moderate or minor
- Warnings name the two molecules, the effect, and what to do about it
- A curated set is not a complete set: the absence of a warning is never a guarantee of safety

WORKS WITH NO INTERNET

The whole catalogue lives on the phone. Search, alternatives, prices, dosing and interactions all work in a basement pharmacy with no signal, on a plane, or anywhere the network gives up. Only the AI assistant needs a connection.

BUILT FOR THE COUNTER

Badeel is written for community pharmacists, and for doctors who prescribe with a budget in mind. It opens on search, answers in one tap, and does not ask you to sign in before it is useful. Arabic and English throughout, including Arabic trade names and Arabic search that copes with how people actually type.

WHO IT IS FOR

Pharmacists dispensing a substitute when the brand is unavailable. Doctors choosing between products a patient can afford. Pharmacy students, and anyone who needs the generic name behind a trade name.

WHAT IT IS NOT

Badeel is a professional reference, not a medical device, and it is not a dose calculator — dosing is shown as published, never computed for a patient. Prices follow the Egyptian Drug Authority list and are indicative; always confirm against the pack and your supplier. Clinical content is reference material and does not replace the product labelling, your own judgement, or your assessment of the individual patient.

Always seek the advice of a qualified doctor or pharmacist in addition to using this app, and before making any medical decision. Never disregard professional medical advice, or delay seeking it, because of something you read here.

FOUND SOMETHING WRONG?

Report a price, a pack or an ingredient from inside the app and it reaches us with the exact record you were looking at. The catalogue is large and the market moves; pharmacists at the counter are the only sensor that scales.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-28

Medicine list now stays up to date.

Until now the app refreshed prices but never picked up newly added medicines, so the list stayed as it was on the day you installed. It now downloads the full catalogue whenever a new edition is published.

This update brings in 83 medicines that were already on our servers but had never reached the app, and the "last updated" date in Settings now shows the real catalogue date instead of the installed one.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-25

No release notes.
