  1. PRTS full form is Pharmacist Registration and Tracking system. PRTS will make online registration of pharmacists mandatory and will track the registered pharmacists all over India. PRTS is launched by Pharmacy council of india on November 2018 as pilot in Delhi, and PRTS will be launched all over India on 1 December 2018.

    Objective of PRTS is to provide quality pharmacy services through qualified pharmacists only and also to enhance status of pharmacists. In this post we will provide all information about PRTS, its benefits and how pharmacists can register online. This development is important for every pharmacy professional in India.



    What is PRTS

    Pharmacist registration and tracking system is a national digital platform for registration and tracking of pharmacists. PRTS will be the national level registry of all registered pharmacists. All state registry details should match the national registry. All state councils have to create their own online registries in similar formats so that data can be synchronised or matched with central registry easily.

    It is expected that once properly in force, without PRTS approval pharmacist could not work in government sector, private pharmacies or industry. Pharmacists will need to update their work profile whenever they resign or change job.

    Benefits of PRTS
