EpilepsyMeds received Highly Commended recognition at the Excellence in Healthcare Partnership Awards 2026, celebrating the collaboration between Desitin Pharma, ChangeMed and Genetic Digital in advancing epilepsy care.

Genetic Digital at the EHP Awards

EpilepsyMeds, a digital clinical decision-support app developed through a partnership between Desitin Pharma, ChangeMed and Genetic Digital, has received a Highly Commended award at the Excellence in Healthcare Partnership Awards 2026.

The recognition highlights the strength of the collaboration and the real-world impact of the project in supporting safer, more confident clinical decision-making in epilepsy care.

EpilepsyMeds was developed in response to insights from multidisciplinary advisory boards, which identified a genuine challenge faced by healthcare professionals: the difficulty of quickly comparing anti-seizure medicines by formulation, excipients and patient-specific considerations at the point of care. These insights directly shaped the design and functionality of the app, ensuring it addressed an everyday clinical need rather than a theoretical use case.

The mobile-first tool provides healthcare professionals with fast, reliable access to licensed anti-seizure medicines information, including formulation details, excipient content and direct links to SmPCs. It is designed to support prescribing decisions in complex settings such as paediatrics, dysphagia, ketogenic diet management and polytherapy.

The project brought together Desitin Pharma’s pharmaceutical and regulatory leadership, ChangeMed’s clinical and academic expertise, and Genetic Digital’s digital product design and development capabilities. The partnership model ensured strong governance, clinical accuracy and usability throughout development.

Speaking following the awards ceremony, representatives from the partnership said the recognition reflects the value of co-creating digital solutions grounded in real-world clinical insight and close collaboration across industry, academia and digital health.

The Excellence in Healthcare Partnership Awards celebrate best practice in collaborative working across healthcare and the life sciences, recognising projects that deliver tangible benefit for patients, clinicians and the wider health system.

The awards ceremony took place in London on 5 February 2026.

Genetic Digital is a pharma digital agency focused on delivering compliant, patient and HCP-centred digital solutions for pharmaceutical and life sciences organisations.
