How it works

Three steps. No account.

Search

Type a medicine name. You see nearby pharmacies with stock, price and how recently that stock was updated.

Order

Add to cart and check out. The price is calculated from the pharmacy's own list, with no markup.

Pick up or get it delivered

Show your pickup code at the counter. Where the pharmacy offers it, non-prescription items can be delivered.

Trust and safety

Designed to be careful with medicine.

LocalDawai is a technology platform that connects you to licensed pharmacies. It does not sell medicines or take payments.

  • Prescription medicines are pickup only, and the pharmacist checks the prescription
  • Schedule X medicines are never shown or orderable
  • Stock freshness is shown, and turns amber when it may be out of date
  • Delivery only for non-prescription items, by the pharmacy's own staff
  • Pharmacies can cancel, stock is restored, and you see the reason

For pharmacies

More customers, without changing how you work.

LocalDawai pairs with PHARVILO, so your stock and prices update on their own and orders appear where you already work.

Stock kept fresh

PHARVILO pushes your stock and prices about every five minutes, so customers see what you really have.

You stay in control

Choose item by item what is visible. Fulfil pickups, deliver with your own staff, or cancel with a reason.

A counter card, ready to print

A QR card for your counter lets walk-in customers open your LocalDawai page and order from their phone.

Pharmacies need the PHARVILO Tablet or Injection plan to connect. LocalDawai is currently in pilot, and we are onboarding pharmacies one by one.

Questions, answered.

Who do I pay?

You pay the pharmacy directly, when you collect or receive your order. LocalDawai does not handle payments.

Does it cost extra for customers?

No. Prices come from the pharmacy's own list and totals are recalculated on the server with no markup.

Can I order prescription medicines?

Yes, for pickup only. The pharmacist at the counter will verify your prescription before handing the medicine over.

Do I need an account?

No. LocalDawai works in your phone browser, and you can add it to your home screen.

Is my data private?

There is a privacy page and a grievance page in the app, and a documented process for data requests.
