pharmacy distribution

Pharmacy distribution refers to the process of delivering medications from manufacturers to pharmacies, where they are then provided to patients. This involves several steps: manufacturers produce the drugs, wholesalers buy large quantities, and then distribute them to various pharmacies. Pharmacies maintain inventory, manage prescriptions, and ensure the safe storage and handling of medications. The goal is to make sure that patients have timely access to the medications they need, while also complying with regulations that ensure safety and efficacy. Proper distribution ensures that drugs are available when needed and helps prevent shortages or expiration.
