Do I need a barcode? What if the box doesn't have one?

No. If the box has a clear barcode, scan it for an exact match and the details fill in for you. If there isn't one, or it is worn, capture the label with your camera or upload a photo of it from your gallery instead. Barcode scanning covers medicines sold in the USA, UK, France, Spain, Switzerland, Norway, Saudi Arabia and Canada, with more regions on the way. Where there is no barcode list yet, such as Qatar and India, photographing the box works instead.
