Narcotics Register
Every receipt and issue of a narcotic or psychotropic substance is logged with batch, quantity, authoriser and timestamp. The balance is computed and reconcilable.
NDPS
NDPS Act Compliance
The Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act 1985 requires hospitals to maintain a register of receipt, issue and balance for every controlled substance. OneCity maintains this register digitally with append-only entries, user attribution and timestamps.
Why it matters
NDPS inspections by the State Drugs Controller can result in licence cancellation and criminal prosecution for missing or inaccurate records.
How OneCity covers it
Prescription Link
Issues are linked to the prescribing doctor and the patient prescription, so the chain from prescriber to dispensing is auditable.
Tamper Evidence
Register entries are append-only. Corrections are recorded as new entries with reason, not as overwrites.
