About Us

Brown Bag Med is a privacy-first, pharmacist-led platform designed to help people safely manage their medications — from the comfort of home. We provide secure, anonymous, and professional medication reviews, identifying potential drug interactions, duplicate therapies, and other safety risks.

Why "Brown Bag"?

In traditional pharmacy settings, patients would gather all their medications in a brown paper bag and bring them to a pharmacist for review. We've modernized this proven method by making it remote, secure, and globally accessible — with digital privacy built in.

Why Brown Bag Med?

Every year, thousands suffer avoidable harm from drug interactions, outdated prescriptions, or uncoordinated care. Our mission is to prevent that harm — by making clinical-grade medication reviews accessible, confidential, and judgment-free.

"I built Brown Bag Med so people can finally feel safe and informed about the medications they take — Private, Safe and Anonymous."
