Our mission
The VigiCare application was born out of a simple observation by health professionals: most adverse reactions to health products such as medicines, food supplements, etc… are not reported. This is due to a lack of information for consumers and the complexity of the reporting process.
To address this issue, we have chosen to develop, in collaboration with various health professionals, our first web application: VigiCare!
Vigicare's mission
To give you access to a reliable analysis of your symptoms and to determine whether an imputability link can be established between them and various health products.
We have developed this application to combat a major public health problem: the lack of knowledge about adverse effects. Vigicare is therefore our response to facilitate access for all to reliable information and analyses on the potential adverse effects of medical products and also to well-being
