Structured fields
Retrieve documented medication fields; coverage varies by match—use the data dictionary when integrating.
Platform workflow
Identify → Match → Retrieve Drug Data is the core medication intelligence loop on BuildLoop Cloud.
Drug information that follows identification
Image recognition is only useful when your product can turn a match into information clinicians and operators recognize. The drug information path starts with a DrugID from Pill Identifier and continues through Drug Details.
Field availability can differ by product and dataset. Design your UI to tolerate missing fields and consult the data dictionary for names and meanings.
International dataset
Pill Identifier on BuildLoop Cloud currently uses the international / partner identification dataset. Drug Details coverage follows what that path can resolve. Confirm expected fields during integration testing.
Frequently asked questions
Where does the DrugID come from?
From Pill Identifier match results. See the Pill Identifier API page and REST documentation for response shape.
Is every field always present?
No. Fields vary by match. Use the data dictionary and defensive parsing in your client.
Is this a prescribing or clinical decision system?
No. BuildLoop Cloud provides assistive technology and drug information retrieval. Your organization remains responsible for clinical judgment and validation.
AI-assisted results: BuildLoop Cloud provides assistive medication image analysis and drug information. Results should be independently validated before use in clinical, dispensing, or other consequential workflows. Medical / AI Disclaimer · AI / Pill Identification Notice
