PMC: PHARMACOLOGICAL SUPPORTS
At Putra Medical Centre, our pharmacological suite of solutions spans a wide range of support services to cover over-the-counter treatment options for minor ailments, general health and wellness advice on dietary specifications and supplements, and clinical counsel on prescribed medications for short- and long-term consumption. Here, counsel extends to adherence (dosages and scheduling), interactions (between drugs), effectiveness (therapeutic functions), and side effects (possible alerts). Careful handling is of utmost importance since medications are a critical pillar of the patient journey.
Meticulous Protocols and Automation
“We have stringent protocols and efficient systems in place to ensure that every type of medication dispensed matches a patient and his or her prescription correctly. The instructions for consumption (oral) or application (external) by dosage and frequency are entered into a specialised database and those details accordingly verified to reflect what a doctor’s directions are for a certain patient. During collection, a fruitful walkthrough is done before any release,” shares Madam Kanagambikai Renoo, a senior registered pharmacist at Putra Medical Centre (Alor Setar) passionate about patient recovery.
An Emphasis On Empathy and Patience
She explains that the PMC team of pharmacists is also trained to recommend preventive treatments, administer vaccinations, extend prescriptions, and offer useful opinions on medication management. Adding that there is a certain degree of care and professionalism which accompanies the profession, she elaborates: “The management of medication can feel like a challenging process for the average patient, particularly if a person must navigate multiple prescriptions. Therefore, understanding and empathy are essential qualities. Some see us on their worst days. The human touch goes a long way.”

Ongoing Prescriptions and Medications
Pharmacists can’t afford to make mistakes. Patients and families rely on our medical and non-clinical teams for the best health outcomes. Where this can be the difference between life and death, there is zero margin for error when it comes to prescriptions and medications. However, a pharmacist’s role doesn’t end with just dispensing drugs. “We have conversations with patients regarding the right kind of diet and supplements which complement their targeted treatments and specific medications. Some come in fretting over new drugs, side effects, and such matters. We walk them through it all.”
