Dispensing & Medication Preparation

Pharmacists dispense verified orders from multiple pharmacy locations based on availability and working hours. The preparation workflow generates structured worklists and prints medication labels with 2D barcodes—essential for accurate bedside medication verification.

Stock is reserved at the point of dispensing and automatically deducted from pharmacy inventory upon confirmed ward delivery, maintaining real-time accuracy at batch level.

The system automatically calculates all required doses for every active order across all wards and generates dispense records for them. This eliminates manual dose counting and order-by-order processing, allowing pharmacists in the central or inpatient pharmacy to focus on clinical tasks instead of repetitive dispensing calculations.
