Okapi Pharmacy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Toppan Printing, has  announced the launch of Todokusuri EXPRESS, a service for delivering prescription medicines to patients through Todokusuri Yakkyoku, a pharmacy opened on July 1.

Todokusuri EXPRESS responds to the needs of the new normal by facilitating prompt delivery of prescription medicines in support of the growth of medical consultation via telephone or the Internet. After consultation with a doctor, patients go to the Todokusuri EXPRESS website to enter the necessary information and request delivery of the medicine prescribed. The medicine is then promptly delivered from Todokusuri Yakkyoku to the patient’s home, with same day delivery available when possible.Todokusuri En1 Rev2©Toppan Printing Co., Ltd.

A related service for medical facilities, Todokusuri Denwa Shinryo Support (todokusuri telephone consultation support), makes it possible for patients to combine payment for medicines and medical treatment into a single transaction and reduces risks associated with collection of medical fees. No special tools or apps are required to introduce the payment service, and it is hoped that the convenience provided will help increase the number of medical facilities able to provide remote consultations. A function providing web-based booking forms for telephone and online appointments with each medical institution is scheduled to be added to the service in October 2020.Todokusuri En2 Rev2©Toppan Printing Co., Ltd.

The Todokusuri EXPRESS service will initially be limited to Tokyo’s Taito ward and parts of the Chiyoda, Chuo, and Sumida wards served by Todokusuri Yakkyoku, with further expansion planned in the future.

“These new services provide convenience for patients and medical professionals by addressing previous challenges like slow delivery times and increased workload,” said Okapi Pharmacy’s president Tatsuichiro Kurashige. “They support efforts to expand pharmacy services that can be accessed from patients’ homes and can play an important role in enabling a new normal as we navigate the spread of Covid-19 infection. Going forward, we will leverage user feedback to enhance offerings and contribute more to medical care and pharmacy services in support of a wide range of stakeholders.”
