Question

What does the AI assistant say when a customer asks about the dosage of a food supplement?

Answer

It only quotes the recommended daily dose given by the manufacturer, from the product description. For individual dosage and for taking it together with medicines, it directs the customer to a doctor or pharmacist and suggests contacting your team. It does not answer these itself.

The answer in detail

The customer gets an answer about dosage if the manufacturer’s recommended daily dose is stated on the product page or in the uploaded product description. The assistant quotes this text, and the source is shown next to it.

If the question does not refer to a specific product, the assistant first asks which food supplement it is and in what pack size, because the recommended dose differs between pack sizes.

For individual dosage, for a child or for taking it together with medicines, the assistant gives no advice. It suggests contacting your team.

What you need to upload

  • the manufacturer’s recommended daily dose for each product
  • the patient information leaflet or description on the product page
  • dosage and composition for each pack size
  • warning on taking the product together with medicines
