Pharmacy businesses marked a rapid increase in sales since the dawn of COVID early in 2019. Since there was a rising demand for medical essentials and life-saving equipment among the healthcare industries, the local pharmacies also noticed a hike in sales. As the best pharmaceutical marketing company in India, many distributors/wholesalers and retailers have joined us in selling non-prescription products through Amazon, Flipkart, or Shopify. The healthcare industries are one of the top evergreen industries that will continue to flourish till the end. But with the extended lockdowns and people being scared to be in public created a spot for online pharmacy sales.
Now you can sell both prescription and non-prescription medicines online following strict government guidelines. With the scope or marketing gradually increasing, customers can now stay at their homes while placing an order for medical supplies just as they order their regular products from Amazon.
Standing in India, you are lucky to get informed before the golden opportunity arrives. Back in 2018, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation(CDSCO) India opposed the idea of selling prescription drugs through any means of the internet. But with the COVID situation and increase in demand for online pharmacy stores, Amazon India launched Amazon Pharmacy, which is a section on the website that will allow the sellers to access Amazon's huge customer portal to showcase and sell prescription drugs.
How can I sell prescription drugs on Amazon being a Pharmaceutical Marketing Company In India?
Selling on Amazon is not mandatory, but new sellers should start their online pharmacy journey through Amazon as it will be easy with Amazon's vast customer database. Even so, you need to follow some necessary rules for selling prescription drugs through Amazon:
a. You need to have a registered pharmacy license and drug license issued by the state government.
b. You need to have an active GST number.
c. Physical location of a warehouse from where you will conduct your business.
Can I sell prescription drugs online without Amazon?
Obviously, you can! Following the correct guidelines, you can set up a new e-pharmacy website and start selling products under your brand name. You can develop a customized website like Netmeds, 1mg, etc, and start selling instantly.
Make sure while ordering, customers are following these crucial steps to avoid violation of online medical purchase:
a. Upload correct prescription while ordering, where the name of medicine and quantities ordered match with the prescription.

c. Valid Id proof should be mandatory while creating accounts on the online store.
