Mashroo3k Consulting Company offers a comprehensive feasibility study for the e-pharmacy project, which is an electronic application for selling medications, cosmetics, and medical supplies online.
The electronic pharmacy achieves the ability to reach the largest number of customers in different places. It also provides marketing features that help increase demand for products offered for sale, such as: medicines, cosmetics, medical supplies, and laboratory supplies.
The concept of an e-pharmacy project relies on selling medications online and delivering them to patients at a convenient time. An e-pharmacy differs from a traditional pharmacy in that it can communicate with a larger number of customers from different locations at the same time.
The electronic pharmacy allows easy communication between the pharmacist and the patient, which makes him able to provide a detailed diagnosis service, describe treatment mechanisms, alternatives to available medications, explain the correct drug doses, contraindications to use, and side effects.
The electronic pharmacy is characterized by its variety of options, between requesting a specific medication according to the doctor’s instructions, or requesting medical advice. Payment can be made in cash or by various credit cards. It also allows the patient to choose the appropriate timing and location for delivery.
The e-pharmacy project keeps pace with the tremendous surge witnessed in the healthcare sector following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to the recent developments in the field of e-commerce.

In 2015, e-commerce contributed approximately 0.4% of the total GDP of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, amounting to $5.3 billion.
