The idea for FindMyMeds came from a real-life struggle—finding a medical store that’s open late at night during an emergency and knowing whether they stock a particular medicine. This issue is even more serious in rural and semi-urban areas where pharmacy access is limited. We wanted to build a solution that could bridge the gap between patients and pharmacies using technology, especially the powerful Google Maps Platform.
FindMyMeds is a web app that:
Shows nearby medical stores using Google Maps.
Allows filtering for stores that are open now, 24x7, or accept online payment.
Lets users search for specific medicines and find which nearby shops stock them.
Gives directions, estimated travel time, and contact details.
Has a feature where shop owners can register and upload stock data (simulated).
We used the Google Maps JavaScript API to display an interactive map.
The Places API was integrated to fetch nearby medical stores and show their details.
A simple Firebase Firestore backend was used to simulate medicine availability.
HTML, CSS, JavaScript were used for frontend; optionally extendable to React.
The interface is mobile-responsive and easy to use for all users.
