Pharmacists often spend 15 minutes or more manually searching multiple databases to answer medication-related questions. Pharmacists at North West Telepharmacy will pilot an AI-driven tool that delivers patient-specific drug information in under 15 seconds using a curated database of evidence-based medical references. Pharmacist Kenny Chan, co-creator of the Aiskyra AI Drug Info Assistant, will work with researchers from the University of Toronto to evaluate the tool’s impact.
