Drug Package Insert Reform & Visualization Project
Overview
Duration: January 2020 – April 2025
Role: Core Team Member
Background
Traditional drug package inserts have tiny fonts (“ant-sized text”) and complex medical terminology, creating barriers for patients—especially elderly populations—to understand medication usage and precautions.
Our Solution
- Developed 150+ visualized medication instruction videos covering 5 therapeutic categories (pediatric medications, menopausal medications, gynecological topical preparations, antitumor drugs, and traditional Chinese patent medicines)
- Created the “One Drug One QR Code” system integrating video links with hospital drug formulary and prescription slips
- Established comprehensive pharmaceutical service support throughout the entire medication process

Innovation
This low-cost, easily replicable model demonstrates that pharmacist-led science communication can effectively address the core challenge of helping patients “understand” medication instructions—going beyond the national reform focus on enlarged fonts and electronic versions.
