With the launch of a knowledge company, robotic pharmacy
technology in Iran’s Urmia city will be nationalized, Rector of the
Medical Sciences, Healthcare and Treatment Services University of
West Azarbaijan Province Javad Aghazadeh said in an interview with
IRNA.
He said that after the registration of robotic pharmacy, these
robots will be produced throughout the country and distributed to
the country’s medical science universities.
"This system will be used by Iranian medical science
universities," he said. "This will benefit Iran’s industry, reduce
costs and create jobs for young people."
He added that Urmia robotic pharmacy was purchased from Finland
for 14 billion rials (over $333,000). Presently, three robots are
working in this pharmacy, he said, adding that two robots control
the warehouse and one robot issues medicines.
"The reduction of human factor, increasing work speed, sale of
medicines at the price indicated on the package of the drug, and
the introduction of new technologies in the healthcare sector are
among the capabilities of the robotic pharmacy," he said.
