Some prescriptions for topical medication (to be used on the skin) require the mixing of different active ingredients in to a base.
In order to enhance the quality of these preparations, we make use of the Unguator 2100 High Speed Mixer.
This high-speed mixing apparatus ensures an excellently prepared product in terms of texture, consistency and aesthetically acceptability to patients.
The Oshakati Pharmacy Group is committed to providing our customers with the best possible service. To that end, we are pleased to announce that we have installed a Robotic Dispensing Unit at Oshakati Pharmacy. It is the first in the Republic of Namibia.
How does it work?
- Assuring accuracy—the dispensing robot is reliable and avoids potential human selecting errors;
- Increase in efficiency— using the dispensing robot, the pharmacist is now able to dispense medicines much faster and thereby reducing patients’ waiting time;
- Pharmacist’s time has been saved and freed to concentrate on clinical oriented tasks such as patient counselling and advice.
