Pharmacy – Ampola Tasakhtaa Hospital

24/7 Pharmacy

The Pharmacy at Ampola Tasakhtaa Hospital is well stocked with well over 600 products; medicines, medical devices and surgical items.

In Zanzibar 100% of all prescriptions must be provided by the issuing centre that the patient attends – so Ampola Tasakhtaa Hospital either has the medicines that are prescribed or we source the medicines on behalf of each patient.

Ampola Tasakhtaa Hospital stocks 95% of the medicine itself, and only sources about 5% from elsewhere.

The challenge is to source medicines and equipment which involves lots of networking, connections and relations with the providers on behalf of every patient.
