Abstract

Planning and procurement of drugs are crucial stages in managing a pharmacy. Proper drug planning can minimize losses and maximize the available budget by focusing on the procurement of high-demand drugs or products. This research was conducted at X Pharmacy in Cimahi City with the aim of controlling drug inventory using the VEN and ROP methods. The results of the study in April showed that there were 0 items in the V category, 160 items in the E category, and 97 items in the N category. In May, there were 0 items in the V category, 158 items in the E category, and 88 items in the N category. In June, there were 0 items in the V category, 284 items in the E category, and 131 items in the N category. The ROP method has been implemented quite well, as the number of drugs ordered was almost in line with the ROP calculations.
