Behind the counter at a pharmacy in Gqeberha, a lot depends on getting logistics right. Compound medication preparation requires proper temperature control and precise measurement—especially critical when the grid is unstable and back-up power might not kick in immediately. Linton Grange manages stock rotation to ensure medications don't sit expired, coordinates with wholesalers to keep essential chronic scripts in stock despite supply chain hiccups, and maintains the cold chain for temperature-sensitive products. The practical reality of pharmacy work here involves anticipating what the local population needs before they run out, and executing flawlessly when they do.
