Dangerous drug cases

## A drug case is proved fill by fill. *Then diagnosis by diagnosis.*

Medrecords AI lines up the pharmacy record with the medical file: every prescription, fill and dose change, the label in force, the first symptoms, the diagnosis and every other cause the chart records. Every entry links to its page. General and specific causation stay with your experts.

Where drug cases turn

### 6 places the manufacturer looks first. The chronology gets you there before they do.

A drug case turns on exposure, timing and the causes nobody ruled out. These are the pages the defense reaches for, flagged before it gets there.

Pharmacy file

#### Proof of use

Every prescription and fill with the drug, strength, supply and pharmacy, so exposure is a list of pages, not a claim.

exposure startPharmacy file

#### Dose and duration

Dose changes, gaps in fills and the last fill, so the exposure window has 2 dates and a total.

dose changeMedical file

#### What the patient was told

The prescriber's notes on risks and the label in force on the date of each fill.

label discussedMedical file

#### Symptom onset

The first note of each symptom, dated and quoted, set against the exposure window.

symptom onsetMedical file

#### Every other cause

Family history, other drugs, smoking, weight and prior conditions the chart records, each with its page.

other cause notedBoth

#### The records that never arrived

The pharmacy printout for the other pharmacy, the pathology report a note mentions, the prescriber's own chart. Listed with the page that points to each one.

How it works

### Send both files. Get 1 timeline back.

#### What you send

- Pharmacy records and prescription histories
- Prescriber and treating records
- Pathology, lab and imaging reports
- Labels and safety notices you have
- Any format: PDFs, scans, faxes, phone photos

#### What you get

- The exposure window, fill by fill, with pages
- Symptom onset and diagnosis set against it
- Every alternative cause the chart records
- Plaintiff fact sheet answers drafted from the record
- A list of records the file refers to but does not contain

#### We lay out the record. Your experts give the causation opinion.

We assemble and cite the exposure, the clinical course and the alternatives the chart records. We do not say the drug causes the condition, that it caused this patient's injury, or that the label was inadequate. Those belong to your retained experts.

**HIPAA, under a signed BAA** — Every file is handled under our Business Associate Agreement.
**SOC 2** — Encryption in transit and at rest, and PHI access logging on every event.
**Never trains a model** — Your records never train any AI model, ours or anyone else’s.
**Deleted after delivery** — Files are deleted 30 days after delivery, with an audit log of every access.
Questions

### Drug injury record review, answered.

**Can you prove the plaintiff took the drug?**
We list every prescription, fill and mention of the drug in the records you send, with pages, so product use rests on documents. Gaps in the proof are flagged too.

**Do you research the medical literature?**
No. We work from the records in the file. General causation and the literature behind it belong to your experts.

**Does this work for MDL inventories?**
Yes. The same review runs across hundreds of plaintiffs, with the same fields pulled for each, ready for fact sheets and case selection.

**Do you retrieve records from providers?**
No. Medrecords AI does not retrieve records from providers or facilities. You bring the records you already have, and review starts in minutes from upload.
