Who is the product intended for?

Although there is no specific target audience, it can be very useful in the following cases:

  • Elderly people.
  • Patients with complex medical treatments.
  • People who are illiterate or have difficulty in reading comprehension.
  • Large families with many drugs in the home.
  • Users with difficulty remembering the indications of each treatment.

How expensive are the Farmiconos?

NOTHING. The Farmiconos are totally free of charge as they are part of a campaign supported by the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality to make life easier for users.

Where can I get them?

The Farmiconos aim to be part of a campaign supported by the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality. If this happens, you may want to look for them at pharmacies, health centers, outpatient clinics, senior centers, etc.

Where on the medicine box should I stick them?

Look for an empty or free area of information so as not to hide any important data you may need later.

What is the correct order of application?

There is no concrete way to do this. Each user can define the method that best suits their needs. One example might be:
FORMAT – FAMILY MEMBER – AFFECTED AREA – DOSAGE / FREQUENCY

I can't find a pictogram I need.

If you need to complete the system with a pictogram that you cannot locate, you can use the blank stickers provided for this purpose. Just draw or write on them with a permanent pen.

I don't understand some pictograms.

Farmiconos are open-ended, and while some may have many meanings, others may be confusing to you. Simply ignore them or assign them a meaning of their own.

Can they be repositioned?

No. Although the Farmiconos are good quality PVC adhesives, it is very likely that when they are removed from the box they will lose the necessary adhesion to be able to relocate them in another position or in another box.

Why are there repeated pictograms?

They are the most frequently used stickers and you may need to repeat some of them in several of your medicines. This is why one of the completed duplicate sheet is included.
