👉 Pharmacy computing refers to the use of advanced information technology systems and software in pharmacies to manage various aspects of pharmacy operations, including prescription management, inventory control, patient record-keeping, and dispensing. These systems automate processes like electronic prescribing, where doctors send prescriptions directly to pharmacies; track inventory levels in real-time to ensure stock accuracy and prevent shortages; manage patient histories and medication lists for personalized care; and facilitate secure electronic transactions for prescriptions and refills. By integrating these technologies, pharmacies can enhance efficiency, improve accuracy, reduce errors, and provide better patient care while maintaining compliance with regulatory standards.
