title: Health-Identity: mobile services for consumers of medicines.
abstract: New technologies for drug identification, traceability and mobile platforms make it possible to personalise the services provided to consumers of medicine. This paper presents the Health-Identity platform, a mobile application which gives consumers the assurance that the drug they have in their hands is a genuine product and can be consumed without risk according to their stored patient profile (allergies, health state, current medication, etc.).
