Does anyone know if there is some website or app where you can enter or select a list of drugs, and it will alert you to any conflicts?

Thanks mac.d, that's a useful link to bookmark.
I was hoping for one where you can input a list of meds to save time. I've found an app in the google play store that claims to do this; will see if there's one in the App Store now . .0 -

Ask your pharmacist they are trained to provide this information. It's not something you should rely on an app or a website for.3

Usually if something's contraindicated, the Dr will have weighed the benefits and risks before prescribing, but mistakes still happen. Always best to check if you're not sure, but better with a human who knows your situation and medical history rather than a standalone database.2
