Short answer: for most medical stores in Pakistan, HisaabPOS is the best pharmacy software in 2026. It sells by batch with expiry alerts, finds medicines by brand or formula (salt), sells loose tablets out of a strip, reports sales to FBR from the till for registered businesses and keeps billing through load-shedding on its Windows app. It starts from Rs 1,000 a month, with a 1-month free trial on the Starter plan and no card needed. Moneypex is the pick if you want 25,000+ pre-loaded medicines and full accounting and can pay for add-ons, and Candela RMS suits pharmacy chains with a head office.

What should pharmacy software in Pakistan do?

A medical store has problems a kiryana does not. Before you look at any price, check these six things:

  1. Batch and expiry. Every purchase should be stored by batch number and expiry date, and the till should sell the earliest-expiring stock first (FEFO) and warn you before stock expires. This is where pharmacies lose the most money.
  2. Formula (salt) search. Customers ask for one brand, doctors write another, and the shelf has three substitutes. Searching by generic formula lets the counter offer an alternative in seconds.
  3. Strip and packet selling. You buy a box and sell a single strip, or a few tablets out of a strip. The software has to track stock in all three units and price loose tablets in proportion to the pack.
  4. A ready medicine catalogue. Typing 5,000 medicines before your first sale is the reason many pharmacies give up on software. Look for a pre-loaded catalogue or Excel import.
  5. FBR and provincial tax. Pharmacies that qualify as Tier-1 retailers must integrate their POS with the Federal Board of Revenue, and sales tax registered suppliers must issue FBR digital invoices. Check whether FBR is built in or a paid add-on.
  6. Khata for clinics and families. Many medical stores supply a nearby clinic on credit or keep monthly accounts for regular families. A proper customer ledger with reminders saves hours at month end.

On prices: under the Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan (DRAP)'s amended pricing policy, DRAP fixes prices for medicines on the National Essential Medicines List, and every pack must still be sold at no more than the maximum retail price printed on it. Good software stores the MRP per batch, so a price change on new stock does not overcharge customers for older packs.

1. HisaabPOS: best overall pharmacy software in Pakistan

HisaabPOS is a cloud POS and inventory system with a dedicated pharmacy edition. One account runs in a browser, on an Android phone or tablet and on a Windows counter app, and the Windows app keeps billing when the internet or power goes, then syncs itself.

For medical stores it covers the full list above: batch and expiry with near-expiry alerts, search by brand or formula, strip and packet selling, and a khata for clinics and regular families with statements and payment reminders sent on WhatsApp from the store's own number. FBR Digital Invoicing and FBR POS Integration are built into the till: once a registered business connects its FBR account, each sale is reported and the FBR invoice number and QR code print on the receipt. PRA (Punjab) is supported too. You can start selling first and add batch details as purchases arrive, which removes the "type in every medicine first" barrier.

Price: from Rs 1,000 a month with unlimited products and invoices (Starter: 1 branch, 3 users). Growth is Rs 2,500 for 3 branches and 10 users, and Business Rs 5,000 for 5 branches. Paying 12 months ahead is discounted. The Starter plan has a 1-month free trial with no card needed; higher plans have shorter trials.

Pros

  • FBR Digital Invoicing, FBR POS and PRA included, not sold as an add-on
  • Bills offline on Windows through load-shedding
  • Formula search, batch and expiry, strip selling in the standard pharmacy edition
  • English or Urdu interface, with Urdu tutorial videos for every feature
  • Web, Android and Windows on one account, multi-branch and godown stock

Cons

  • Offline billing needs the Windows app; the browser version needs a connection
  • No pre-loaded catalogue as large as Moneypex's 25,000 medicines
  • Newer than the long-running desktop systems, so fewer local resellers

See the HisaabPOS pharmacy edition for the medical-store features in detail.

2. Moneypex: best for pre-loaded medicines and accounting

Moneypex combines POS with a full accounting suite. Its Pakistan pharmacy edition comes with 25,000+ pre-loaded medicines, generic formula search and batch and expiry tracking, and an offline desktop version is sold as a one-time licence.

Price: the retail and pharmacy POS Standard plan is PKR 24,000 a year (about PKR 2,000 a month). Each extra user (PKR 2,500), terminal (PKR 500), shop (PKR 18,000), FBR integration (PKR 2,000) and the scanning app (PKR 6,500) are monthly add-ons. 7-day trial, no card.

Pros

  • Large pre-loaded medicine catalogue
  • Invoicing, expenses, bank reconciliation and financial reports in one system

Cons

  • FBR is a paid monthly add-on
  • Extra users and shops raise the monthly bill quickly
  • A 7-day trial is short for a real test at the counter

How to switch pharmacy software without closing the store

  1. Export what you have. Ask your current vendor for an Excel export of products, suppliers and customer balances.
  2. Import, do not type. Import the product list and opening balances from Excel.
  3. Enter opening batches for high-value and fast-expiring stock first. You can start selling before every batch is entered, but stock without batch records is not expiry-controlled until you add them, so treat this as a short-term compromise and finish the opening batch count within a few weeks.
  4. Print barcode labels for loose stock. A free barcode generator works for a first test batch.
  5. Run both systems for a week, then close the old one at month end.

Our verdict

If you run one to five medical stores and want FBR invoicing, offline billing and real batch and expiry control at a published rupee price, start with HisaabPOS. Choose Moneypex if a pre-loaded catalogue and full accounting matter more than add-on costs, HysabOne if you need many users on an accounting-first system, Oscar POS if you want a managed setup across branches, and Candela RMS if you run a chain with a head office.

How we ranked: we compared published prices, trial length, FBR and provincial tax support, offline billing, and the pharmacy features listed above, using each vendor's own pages as of November 2026, and had the draft fact-checked against vendor sites. Disclosure: HisaabPOS is run by the same owner as ProductListo. That is why we list every competitor's real price and HisaabPOS's own weak points, so you can check our reasoning.
