Prescription OCR
Extract medicine names, dosage instructions, and clinical notes from handwritten prescription images using AI-powered optical character recognition. Upload a clear photo and receive structured, readable text in seconds.
How Prescription OCR Works
Three simple steps to turn a handwritten prescription into clear, readable text.
Upload your prescription
Take a clear photo or scan of the handwritten prescription and upload the image. JPEG, PNG, and WebP formats are supported.
AI processes the image
Our OCR engine analyzes the handwriting, identifies medicine names, dosage amounts, timing instructions, and clinical abbreviations.
Review the extracted text
Read the structured output, compare it against the original image, and confirm any important details with your pharmacist or doctor.
When Prescription OCR Helps Most
Prescription OCR is most useful when handwriting makes it difficult to identify key medication details at a glance.
Blurry or rushed handwriting
When the prescription was written quickly and certain letters or words are hard to distinguish, OCR provides a clearer first reading to work from.
Multiple medications listed
Prescriptions with several drug names, dosages, and timing instructions are easier to review when each line is extracted into structured text.
Medical abbreviations and shorthand
Common abbreviations like b.i.d., t.i.d., p.r.n., and q.h.s. are recognized and preserved so you can look them up or ask your pharmacist.
Prescription OCR FAQ
Common questions about extracting text from prescription images.
Prescription OCR uses AI to read handwritten prescription images and extract medicine names, dosage instructions, and other details into clear, editable text.
The OCR output is a reading aid, not a medical instruction. Always compare the extracted text against the original image and confirm medication details with a pharmacist or clinician.
You can upload JPEG, PNG, or WebP images. For best results, use a well-lit, focused photo of the prescription with minimal background clutter.
The AI can often extract text from slightly blurry images, but very low-resolution or heavily obscured photos may produce incomplete results. Re-take the photo with better lighting if needed.
Uploaded images are processed securely and are not stored permanently. We do not share your prescription data with third parties.
The AI is trained on a wide range of medical handwriting styles, including common abbreviations. However, extremely illegible handwriting may still result in uncertain readings marked as unclear.
