Imagine consulting with a licensed pharmacist from your living room; no traffic, no waiting. Telepharmacy makes that possible, and it’s now more important than ever in Nigeria.
Why it Matters
Many Nigerians, particularly in rural regions, still suffer limited access to professional pharmacy services. A recent African review notes that telepharmacy “bridges the gap between pharmacists and patients” in hard-to-reach communities. In Lagos alone, a survey found that 63% of community pharmacists now offer telepharmacy services, and 96.5% believe it can expand market access and improve convenience.
Benefits That Count
- Access & Reach: Enables medication counseling, dosage checks, and prescription reviews without geographic barriers.
- Improved Adherence: Communication tools boost accountability – telepharmacy has shown to significantly enhance patient adherence in chronic care.
- Patient Satisfaction: Over 70% of users found telepharmacy acceptable, with many willing to pay a small fee (approx. US\$2.76/month).
