About PillParser

PillParser is a free, educational tool designed to make medication ingredient information easier to find and understand.

Most medications contain more than just an active ingredient. Tablets, capsules, liquids, and inhalers often include inactive ingredients—also known as excipients—that help with manufacturing, stability, appearance, and delivery.

PillParser brings this information together in one place by displaying ingredient data from publicly available drug labeling sources.


What PillParser Does

PillParser allows users to:

  • Search prescription and over-the-counter medications

  • View listed active and inactive ingredients

  • See dosage form and manufacturer information

  • Compare ingredient differences across formulations

PillParser does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations.


Why PillParser Exists

Medication labels can be difficult to locate, interpret, or compare—especially when switching brands, generics, or manufacturers.

PillParser was created to support ingredient transparency, giving users access to information they can review and discuss with healthcare professionals when needed.


Who PillParser Is For

PillParser may be helpful for:

  • People curious about what’s in their medication

  • Those comparing formulations or manufacturers
