Counter-speed Rx workflow

Pharmacy dispensing software

Quick Dispense is a keyboard-first workstation: pick the till and currency, find or register the patient, add medicines with dosage cyphers, attach the script, then Save, Verify and Collect — with a permanent RX- number from the very first save.

BasaRx by Pindah. Pharmacies, clinics and hospitals in Zimbabwe and Southern Africa. Cloud-hosted, with local support from Harare.

What you get

Built for how Zimbabwe dispenses and bills

Pindah builds BasaRx so pharmacies, clinics and hospitals do not buy a till, an EMR and an accounts pack from three vendors. One patient, one medicine catalogue, one ledger — implemented from Harare and used across Zimbabwe and Southern Africa.

  • Dosage cyphers (BD, TDS and more) auto-expand into directions
  • Allergy, chronic notes and medical-aid membership shown before medicines are added
  • Script capture as photo or PDF, including in-browser camera
  • Deliberate pharmacist verification: Dispensed → Verified → Collected
  • Hold, cancel and return paths inside the same document
In depth

Pharmacy dispensing software: how it works

From script to labelled pack

Search or register the patient, choose the doctor or referrer from the local register or the MDPCZ public directory, add lines with quantity, price, cypher, dose and days' supply, and optionally schedule refills. Labels print with dosage text derived from the cypher.

Verification is a step, not an afterthought

Status advances Dispensed, Verified, Collected — or Awaiting POS when there is a shortfall. Pharmacist verification is explicit and audited, and dispense PDFs are available for patient or audit packs.

Payment without a second system

Collect cash, card or medical aid at the workstation, or send the unpaid balance to POS. Dispenses are invoice documents with real RX- numbers assigned at creation, so status changes never mint a temporary ID.

Stock and ledger move together

Each dispense deducts FEFO batch stock and posts to the ledger in the same flow, so the pharmacy and the books agree.

Questions

Pharmacy dispensing software — common questions

A short code such as BD or TDS that BasaRx expands into full patient directions on the label.

Yes — attach it as a photo or PDF, including capturing with the browser camera, so the paper trail stays with the digital record.

No. RX- numbers are assigned at creation and stay permanent; status changes never create a temporary ID.

Yes. The same workstation supports retail counters, clinic dispensaries and hospital pharmacies.

Run pharmacy and EHR as one business.
