Sigmaphone Introduces The New And Free IPharmacy For Android

Online, January 27, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Sigmaphone introduces a free version of iPharmacy on the Android Market. The free version has all the features that its iPhone counterpart has plus a scanner, making it easy to search the over 10,000 drug profiles.

With this additional feature, iPharmacy now allows users to conveniently search drug information in three different ways. First, the user can search a drug profile by its drug name. Second, the user can search the drug information by entering the drug's national drug code, a series of numerical digits. Finally, it also allows users to search by scanning the UPC barcode on the prescription drug bottle. This feature is only available on the Android version.

With iPharmacy's new scanning feature, searching for drug profiles is as easy as taking a photo with an Android-based phone. The requirement to utilize this feature is a built-in camera.

Moreover, Sigmaphone has increased its drug database dramatically, from 7,000 to over 10,000 profiles of FDA approved drugs and prescriptions. Most of its competition provides profiles of 1,000 to 6,000 drugs and prescriptions.

iPharmacy is a hugely successful and an "extraordinary" medical app by any standards. It has been named the best paid medical iPhone app of 2010. It has been named the best iPhone app for prescription reference. Moreover, it has been featured in numerous online and print publications including the Chicago Tribune, Appolicious, Crazy Mike's Apps, and Healthcare Technology Online. In addition, iPharmacy won the bronze metal at the Best Mobile App Contest at the 2010 SVCW Conference held in Mountain View, CA.

In addition to great app features, iPharmacy offers value in terms of savings to its users. iPharmacy has partnered with Honest Discounts to offer iPharmacy app users big savings on their prescription. iPharmacy comes with a pre-activated prescription discount card allowing users to save up to 75% off the original price on their prescription, accepted at over 54,000 pharmacies including Rite Aid, Target, CVS Pharmacy, Walgreens, and Walmart. To receive the discount, the user simply displays the discount card in the app and shows it to the pharmacist at any of the participating pharmacies.
