A Health-Inclined organisation, Wellahealth, has launched Welladirect to make expensive medications affordable for Nigerians via its new platform called Welladirect
Founder of Wellahealth, Dr Ikpeme Neto, who made this known to Tribune Online yesterday in Lagos, stated the company is offering individuals the opportunity to choose effective alternatives through generic switching of their current expensive routine brand-name medications.
According to him, the platform then checks with its extensive network of over 2,000 pharmacies to provide the best price for the alternatives prescribed and delivered to your home.
He added that it is poised to combat the burgeoning costs of medications, as it thus becomes a beacon of affordability without compromising on the quality of care.
“This groundbreaking solution is poised to revolutionise the healthcare industry in Nigeria by addressing the growing concerns surrounding the rising costs of medications.
“With its introduction in January 2024, Welladirect, having seen firsthand the toll the rising cost of drugs is taking on Nigerians, is offering individuals the opportunity to choose effective alternatives through generic switching of their current expensive routine brand-name medications.
“The platform then checks with its extensive network of over 2,000 pharmacies to provide the best price for the alternatives prescribed and delivered to your home.
“This is all in a bid to combat the burgeoning costs of medications. Welladirect thus becomes a beacon of affordability without compromising on the quality of care.
“The platform simplifies the search process, ensuring a seamless and user-friendly experience tailored to diverse healthcare needs.
“For us at Wellahealth, Welladirect is more than just a platform for providing alternatives to expensive medications; it’s a commitment to making quality healthcare accessible to every individual.
We believe in a future where affordability and convenience are not compromised in the pursuit of well-being,” He said.
