Pakistan's Medicine Verification Platform

Accessibility

Medicine safety information must be usable by everyone. This page describes what we have built in and how to tell us when something falls short.

Updated

What the site provides

  • Full keyboard navigation, a skip-to-content link, and visible focus indicators.
  • Semantic HTML landmarks, labeled form fields, and ARIA roles on tabs, alerts and live result regions.
  • Color is never the only carrier of meaning: every verification state has a text label and icon alongside its color.
  • Contrast ratios chosen to meet WCAG 2.1 AA on text and interactive controls.
  • Reduced-motion preferences are respected: animations are disabled when your system requests it.
  • Camera scanning always has manual alternatives: photo upload and plain text entry.
  • The layout works at phone width with large touch targets and no horizontal scrolling.

Known limitations

  • The interface is currently English-only; an Urdu interface is planned.
  • Documents linked on official external sites (for example DRAP PDF notices) are outside our control.
