## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability medapi-patient-info-drug-information-lookup-24e68fdd -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up patient-friendly information about metformin — I need its uses, dosage, precautions, and side effects explained in plain language?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, structured drug information plus a patient-friendly AI explanation for a named medication. Ideal for consumer-facing health apps, patient education workflows, or when an agent needs to explain a prescription to a non-specialist. Prefer over raw PubMed search when you want pre-structured dosage/precaution data rather than raw literature.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or misspelled drug name may return success:false or empty data
- Obscure or experimental drugs may not be found in the underlying dataset
- Very new medications may lack complete dosage or side effect information
- Ambiguous drug names (e.g. brand vs generic) may return incorrect or incomplete results
- Payment failure via x402 returns 402 before any medical data is provided
