Point the camera at a box of ibuprofen and ask if you can take it while pregnant. The answer quotes the Drug Facts panel and marks the lines it stands on, on the print.
If an allergic reaction occurs, stop use and seek medical help right away.

The label says to ask a health professional before use if you’re pregnant or breast-feeding, and not to use ibuprofen at 20 weeks or later in pregnancy unless definitely directed to do so by a doctor.
Reading the label
From this panel only · 2 lines marked
Drug Facts · Ibuprofen 200 mg
PHOTOSIRIPORTRAIT
The label is the standard Drug Facts wording for ibuprofen. The answers are scripted from it; nothing is sent.
Ask a phone camera whether you can take ibuprofen while pregnant and you get a paragraph from the web. The box in your hand already answers it, in a format the FDA fixes down to the bullet: the Drug Facts panel. Every over-the-counter medicine sold in the US carries it, with the same headings in the same order.
So the answer here is made only of what the panel says, and it starts by saying so. The words it quotes are selected on the photo in Live Text’s blue, in the perspective of the print, and underlined in the same blue in the answer, so you can find one from the other. For pregnancy that’s two lines: ask a health professional before use, and don’t use it at 20 weeks or later unless a doctor tells you to. The answer never says yes or no. It shows where the box says what it says, and always with the heading the line sits under, because “take a blood thinning drug” means something very different without “the chance of bleeding is higher if you” in front of it.
If an allergic reaction occurs, stop use and seek medical help right away.

Type your own question and it’s matched to the panel by meaning: ask about your liver and it marks the one line, under “Ask a doctor before use if”, that names liver cirrhosis. Ask whether it’ll make you drowsy and nothing gets marked, because the panel never mentions it. Ask something it can’t match and it says so rather than guess. Those empty states matter more than the marks. A health answer with nothing under it is the one I’d want a product to refuse to give.
The photo has two scales, like Photos: close enough to read, and the whole box as you shot it. It opens close in, and the first thing that happens is the marks landing on the printed lines, in step with the words they back in the answer. Once an answer lands, the suggestions fold into one “Ask another”, so the marked lines keep the middle of the screen. It’s the argument in AI needs receipts, taken off the screen and put on the object.
The cost is coverage. Drug Facts is the rare label whose layout is set by regulation, which is why reading from the print can be trusted here. Most packaging makes no such promise, and an answer read from it is only as good as what the maker chose to print.
