I didn't get it. He starts as if this is b2c kind of business, but then shows screenshots with service aimed at drug researchers.

If it is b2c: make an app for the phone.

Screen1: human body, where you can choose places where you feel unrest.

Screen2: describe what is wrong

Screen3: "based on your answers and your geolocation you can get these 3 remedies which are safe" or if something extreme is going on "please see the doctor, in the mean time you can use aspirin to relieve your pain"

*I usually call mom when I have headache, temperature or diarrhea cause I constantly forget which one should I take. I'm 30:-( I would use such app for these hints. For anything more serious I would go to doctor and wouldn't self medicate.

Monetization(Hard): Subscription for extra features like tracking of drug dosages and keeping track of your home stock. Would probably be beneficial to someone who takes a lot of drugs all the time.

Monetization2(Medium hard): deals with local pharmacies to be able to provide recommendations where to buy a specific drug advised by the app.

Based on screenshots what he built is b2b app for doctors?

one more thing 5 minutes later: I was travelling a lot past 4 years and would be great:

Buy international insurance within an app and have a list of local hospitals I can go to

Be able to "download" integration with local pharmacies like it was with maps.me These can be sold. If I'm in India and got Delhi Belly I would pay 2-5 USD to find nearest pharmacy/hospital or order drugs to my hotel
