Prvaha’s drug catalogue is a centralised, searchable list of all medications your clinic uses. When a doctor writes a prescription, they search this catalogue to add drugs — so keeping the catalogue complete, accurate, and up to date directly improves how quickly and correctly prescriptions are written at the point of care.

​
Adding a drug

Only Admin users can add new drugs to the catalogue. To add a drug:
1

Go to Dashboard → Drugs

Navigate to Dashboard → Drugs from the left sidebar, then click Add Drug in the top-right corner.
2

Enter the drug details

Fill in the drug’s details using the form:
3

Save

Click Save to add the drug to the catalogue. It is immediately searchable and available for prescriptions.

​
Searching drugs

The catalogue includes a built-in search bar at the top of Dashboard → Drugs. Search by brand name, generic name, or your internal Unique ID to quickly find any drug. Doctors use this same search when composing prescriptions — results appear as they type, so a well-named, consistently labelled catalogue makes prescription writing significantly faster.

​
Editing a drug

To update an existing drug, click its name in the catalogue list to open the drug detail page, then click Edit. You can update any field — name, strength, form, or schedule type.

​
Retiring a drug

To retire a drug that is no longer used, open its detail page and set its status to Unavailable. Unavailable drugs do not appear in prescription search results but remain in the catalogue for historical record-keeping.
Review your catalogue periodically and retire discontinued or superseded drugs. A lean, current formulary means doctors spend less time scrolling past irrelevant results and are less likely to accidentally prescribe a discontinued medication.
The drug catalogue is per-clinic. If your account manages multiple clinic locations, each clinic maintains its own separate formulary. A drug added to one clinic is not automatically available in another.
