A digital therapeutic is software that delivers a medical intervention directly to a patient, treating, managing, or preventing a disease the way a drug or medical device would. Unlike a typical health app that tracks steps or reminds you to drink water, a digital therapeutic is backed by clinical trial evidence, cleared or authorized by a regulatory body like the FDA, and in many cases requires a prescription. Think of it as medicine delivered through an app or software program instead of a pill.
DTx can enhance existing therapeutic methods and they also help standadize the delivery of medical interventions. Digital Therapeutic (DTx) products are held to the same standards of evidence and regulatory oversight as traditional medical treatments. Panatal™ provides DTx programs forcused on empowering women to manage diabetes, hypertension, obesity etc.
