You need fast POS billing, IRD e-billing, inventory, expiry alerts, supplier orders, DDA reports, and eSewa/Khalti payment.
You need pharmacy software connected to prescriptions, IPD medication, ward stock, narcotic registers, and hospital billing.
You need B2B billing, full batch traceability, multi-warehouse stock, delivery management, and distributor analytics.
DDA-based public listings show 5,753 registered pharmacies in Kathmandu alone, with pharmacies operating across all districts. Retail, hospital, and wholesale pharmacies all need more than basic billing: they need stock accuracy, batch/expiry control, tax-ready invoices, and inspection-ready records.
Hospital pharmacies have an extra gap: prescriptions, IPD medication, ward stock, and billing must connect with the hospital system. Generic pharmacy software usually treats a hospital pharmacy like a retail shop, which is not how clinical dispensing works.
Purba Tech Labs builds custom pharmacy systems around Nepal-specific compliance, CBMS-ready e-billing architecture, DDA records, eSewa/Khalti POS, hospital HMS integration, and one-time ownership.
Every feature a community pharmacy or medical shop needs - from fast counter billing to DDA compliance reporting.
Bill customers quickly by medicine name, generic name, or barcode. Print receipt or send digital bill with cash, eSewa, Khalti, and credit modes.
CBMS-ready tax invoicing, VAT category handling, PAN invoice formats, and Nepal-hosted server architecture for cloud billing compliance planning.

A hospital pharmacy is not a retail shop. It is a clinical department connected to prescriptions, wards, billing, and patient safety.
Doctor prescriptions from OPD or ward systems flow to the pharmacy queue, and dispensing links back to the patient EMR.
Dispense against OPD prescriptions, manage substitutions, partial dispensing, stock checks, and patient billing.
Track medication orders, ward dispensing, nursing administration records, discharge reconciliation, and missed-dose alerts.
Issue stock to wards, OT, ICU, and emergency, track consumption by patient, and reconcile at shift end.
Tamper-aware records for receipt, dispensing, wastage, destruction, staff ID, patient details, and doctor reference.
Pharmacy charges post to OPD bills, IPD running bills, discharge bills, and insurance claim line items.
Formulary, purchases, batch tracking, expiry, surgical/consumable/reagent categories, and DDA reports.
Approved formulary, generic-first workflows, substitution approval, and non-formulary alerts.
Manage high-volume pharmaceutical distribution: manufacturer purchases, batch tracking, B2B sales, IRD billing, delivery, and multi-warehouse stock.

Nepal's pharmacies face compliance requirements from tax and drug regulators. The system is designed to keep records during normal operation, not as a last-minute manual task.
Nepal's Inland Revenue Department uses the Central Billing Monitoring System (CBMS) to monitor billing data for taxpayers in scope. Our pharmacy system is designed around IRD-format invoices, VAT category handling, CBMS-ready integration, and server inside Nepal planning for cloud e-billing deployments.
The Department of Drug Administration regulates pharmacy operations under the Drug Act 2035. The system maintains stock, batch, expiry, controlled drug, and dispensing records during normal operations so inspection reports are not a separate manual exercise.
When a manufacturer or regulator issues a recall, batch search identifies current stock, movement history, and sale records quickly. This supports patient safety and DDA inspection readiness.
Controlled medicine workflows can require prescription entry before dispensing and capture patient, doctor, quantity, staff, and transaction details in a digital register.
| Before | After |
|---|---|
| Expiry discovered at dispensing | Expiry alert fires months before |
| DDA inspection means scrambling for registers | Inspection reports generated from live records |
| Narcotic register handwritten | Digital narcotic register with audit trail |
| E-billing not CBMS-ready | CBMS-ready invoice workflow |
| Stock count takes days | Real-time stock with faster physical count |
| Drug recall requires shelf search | Batch search identifies recalled stock quickly |
| Hospital prescriptions re-entered manually | Doctor prescription flows to pharmacy queue |
| IPD medicines not tracked per patient | IPD medication tracked and billed accurately |
| Reorder discovered after stockout | Reorder alert fires at threshold |
| VAT return compiled manually | VAT data exported from system |
CBMS-ready billing, Nepal server planning, batch tracking, and narcotic registers are core modules, not afterthoughts.

Purba Tech Labs builds custom pharmacy management software for retail pharmacies, hospital pharmacies, and wholesale distributors across all 77 districts of Nepal. Whether you are a medical shop owner in Kathmandu, a pharmacy chain in Pokhara, a hospital pharmacy manager in Biratnagar, or a wholesale distributor in Chitwan, we build CBMS-ready pharmacy software with DDA records, batch/expiry tracking, eSewa/Khalti payments, and one-time ownership.
Pharmacy management software in Nepal costs between NPR 80,000 and NPR 5,00,000+ depending on pharmacy type and features. A single retail pharmacy starts at NPR 80,000-1,50,000. A 2-5 branch chain costs NPR 1,50,000-3,00,000. A hospital pharmacy integrated with HMS costs NPR 1,50,000-4,00,000. Wholesale distributor systems cost NPR 2,00,000-5,00,000. These are one-time implementation costs, not monthly SaaS fees.
Yes. IRD e-billing with Central Billing Monitoring System (CBMS) integration can be implemented as a core module. Sales generate IRD-format tax invoices, VAT is handled for taxable versus exempt categories, and cloud deployments are planned with server inside Nepal infrastructure to meet server-location expectations for e-billing systems.
Yes. The system maintains digital stock registers, batch/lot records, expiry tracking, narcotic and psychotropic drug registers, and Schedule H dispensing logs as part of normal operations. Inspection packages can be generated from the dashboard.
Batch tracking records the batch number, manufacturing date, expiry date, supplier, purchase quantity, current balance, and sales linked to that batch. It supports DDA inspection readiness, accurate expiry management, and quick response if DDA or a manufacturer issues a drug recall.
Yes. The POS can enforce prescription entry for controlled medicines and maintain a digital register with patient details, prescription number, prescribing doctor, quantity, and dispensing staff ID.
It depends on your existing HMS. If it has an API, we can integrate prescriptions and billing data. If not, we can assess bridge options. If HMS and pharmacy are implemented together, we build them as one unified system.
Yes. eSewa and Khalti payments can be accepted at the counter or through the customer/patient app, and payment mode summaries reconcile cash, digital payments, and credit sales.
Yes. Branch plans support a centralized medicine master, branch-wise inventory and billing, inter-branch stock transfers, centralized purchase management, and consolidated reporting.
Yes. Wholesale systems support manufacturer purchases, B2B tax invoices, credit management, multi-warehouse inventory, batch traceability, drug recall workflows, delivery orders, and sales rep reporting.
FEFO means First Expiry First Out. When one medicine has multiple batches, the system defaults to dispensing the earliest-expiry batch first. This reduces expiry loss and supports DDA inspection expectations.
IRD and CBMS requirements can change over time. AMC covers required updates to invoice formats, sync requirements, reporting changes, and compliance-related bug fixes.
