Pharmacy Information System
ABSTRACT:
       A pharmacy information system must retrieve process and update the information
it obtains for safe and effective use of drugs. It is used to manage drug usage in the
patient health care process and to communicate a large volume of information to
pharmacy and pharmaceutical firms. The pharmacy information system is normally used
to support therapeutic activities and the inventory. Pharmaceutical companies had
developed some relationship, on marketing issues, with hospital pharmacies. The findings
were in favor of further therapeutic activities by pharmacy information systems, which
could be achieved by improving relationship between hospitals and pharmaceutical firms,
particularly in Tehran. This could help to manage drug consumption and supervision,
after marketing, in order to eliminate adverse drug reactions and develop high quality
pharmaceutical services.
EXISTING SYSTEM:
          Hospital pharmacy supervision is to ensure that medicines are accessed
and used safely by patients and professionals both within the environments of a hospital
and beyond . Pharmacy involves information processing, which means retrieving
information from one file and using it to compare, update, or display information from
another file. The pharmacist could play an essential role in providing accurate data for
managing patient care. Information systems are now necessary to help pharmacists to
perform their expanding list of daily tasks efficiently.

The pharmacist could play an essential role in providing accurate data for managing
patient care. Information systems are now necessary to help pharmacists to perform their
expanding list of daily tasks efficiently. The pharmacy information system collects, stores
and manages information related to drugs and supervises the use of drugs in line with
patient care. The pharmacy information system can rely on management information
system to track and dispense drugs to hospitals and health care organizations. Pharmacy
information systems are also among the most widely used clinical information systems
today.
