4 min read5 min readReviewed 26 October 2026

In short

Stock is counted per item, not per patient. From usage, stock on hand, expiry and lead time, AI can compute reorder points and draft an order. Pharmacy staff decide.

After this lesson you can

  • Prepare a per-item medicine and consumables summary with no trail to patients for AI to help with
  • Use AI to compute reorder points and draft medicine orders that clinic pharmacy staff check
  • Recognise AI's limits in clinic decisions on purchasing and substituting medicines
