Medic Alert,

a nonprofit U.S. organization that maintains a huge data base of information about individuals who are taking one or more medications for a chronic disorder. The database also includes emergency telephone numbers for physicians treating the patients and provides bracelets or pendants to alert paramedics, interns, or other emergency medical personnel of the medical condition and prescription drugs taken by the patient, who may be unconscious or confused after an accident or episode of illness. Medic Alert maintains access to the database for emergency medical personnel through a 24-hour telephone service.
