Pharmacies are easily accessible health facilities and serve as practice locations for pharmacists in supporting public health. Pharmacy services must ensure the availability of safe, high-quality, effective, and affordable medicines and medical devices. Proper drug management is therefore essential to maintain the continuity and quality of pharmaceutical services. This study aimed to determine whether the drug management system at Berkah Waras Pharmacy complies with the Minister of Health Regulation No. 73 of 2016 concerning Pharmaceutical Service Standards in Pharmacies. The study also aimed to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of the drug management system in ensuring medicine availability. A quantitative descriptive design was employed, using observations and interviews as data collection methods. The study was conducted from February to April at Berkah Waras Pharmacy, Mipiran, Purbalingga. The results showed that the overall drug management system achieved 59% compliance. Planning was the best-performing aspect, with 100% compliance, while recording and reporting achieved only 33%, and destruction and withdrawal achieved 0%. These findings indicate that drug management at Berkah Waras Pharmacy did not fully comply with the applicable standards. The main obstacles were related to recording drug mutations and the absence of physical stock cards.
