Adherence to regulatory requirements is non-negotiable at BASE PHARMACY. We maintain all required licences, follow all FDA guidelines, and uphold the ethical standards of the pharmaceutical profession.
BASE PHARMACY was established in Accra with a clear mandate to provide quality pharmaceutical products at accessible prices. The company was incorporated under Ghanaian law and received its inaugural FDA pharmaceutical licence, marking the beginning of a journey that would transform healthcare access in Greater Accra.
Recognising the need for a reliable wholesale pharmaceutical supplier in the region, BASE PHARMACY launched its wholesale division, supplying clinics, hospitals, and pharmacies across Greater Accra. This expansion significantly increased the company's footprint and impact on healthcare delivery.
To better serve our growing clientele and accommodate our expanding inventory, BASE PHARMACY relocated to our current state-of-the-art facility at the SIC Building on Granville Avenue — a purpose-fitted space with modern dispensing counters, climate-controlled storage, and an enhanced consultation area.
BASE PHARMACY broadened its service offering to include pharmaceutical consultancy for healthcare institutions, government agencies, and private enterprises — advising on formulary management, procurement strategies, regulatory compliance, and healthcare supply chain optimisation.
Today, BASE PHARMACY LIMITED COMPANY stands as one of Accra's most respected pharmaceutical establishments, serving tens of thousands of patients annually, partnering with dozens of healthcare institutions, and continuing to invest in the health infrastructure of Ghana's capital city and beyond.

Our Difference
In a market crowded with pharmaceutical options, BASE PHARMACY LIMITED COMPANY distinguishes itself through an uncompromising commitment to quality, a depth of professional expertise, and a client-centred culture that puts patient wellbeing above all else. Here is why thousands of Ghanaians and healthcare institutions choose us as their pharmaceutical partner of choice.
We hold all mandatory licences from Ghana FDA and maintain 100% compliance with all pharmaceutical regulations — giving you complete peace of mind about every product you receive.
Our team of registered pharmacists brings decades of clinical experience and ongoing professional development, ensuring the highest standard of pharmaceutical care for every client.
Our robust inventory management system and strong supplier relationships ensure that essential medicines are almost always in stock, eliminating the frustration of medication shortages for our clients.
We leverage our buying power and efficient operations to offer competitive prices on all products — both retail and wholesale — without ever compromising on quality or authenticity.
Our temperature-controlled storage and handling infrastructure ensures that temperature-sensitive products — vaccines, biologics, insulin — maintain full potency and safety throughout the supply chain.
We build genuine, lasting partnerships with clients — understanding their unique needs, offering tailored solutions, and providing ongoing support that goes far beyond a simple transactional relationship.
At BASE PHARMACY, quality assurance is not a department — it is a culture that permeates every aspect of our operations. From the moment a product enters our procurement pipeline to the moment it is dispensed to a patient, it undergoes multiple verification steps designed to guarantee its authenticity, potency, and safety.
Our pharmacists undergo continuous professional development, attending workshops, conferences, and training programmes to stay abreast of the latest clinical guidelines, drug safety information, and pharmaceutical innovations. This commitment to ongoing learning means our clients always receive advice based on the most current and evidence-based pharmaceutical knowledge.
We also maintain a robust pharmacovigilance programme, actively monitoring for adverse drug reactions reported by our patients and feeding this information back to the relevant regulatory authorities — contributing to the broader safety of Ghana's pharmaceutical ecosystem.
Not all medications require a prescription. Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines can be purchased without a prescription. However, prescription-only medicines (POMs) — including antibiotics, controlled substances, psychiatric medications, and certain cardiovascular drugs — require a valid prescription from a licensed healthcare practitioner. Our pharmacists will always advise you on the correct process and can help identify when a medical consultation is warranted.
Wholesale orders can be placed by contacting our wholesale team directly via phone at +233 302 672 317 or by email at wholesale@basac.org. We will assign a dedicated account manager to your institution who will guide you through our ordering process, provide a current product catalogue with pricing, and arrange delivery logistics. All institutional clients are required to provide their valid FDA operating licence before a wholesale account is opened.
Absolutely. Every single product stocked by BASE PHARMACY is sourced from manufacturers or their authorised distributors and has received approval from the Ghana Food and Drugs Authority (FDA). We maintain comprehensive procurement records, batch documentation, and supplier certifications for all products. If you have any doubts about a specific product, our pharmacists will happily provide full documentation of its provenance and regulatory status.

Regulatory Standards
BASE PHARMACY LIMITED COMPANY operates within a rigorous framework of regulatory compliance, quality management, and professional ethics. Our commitment to compliance is not merely a legal obligation — it is the cornerstone of the trust our clients, partners, and the communities we serve have placed in us.
We hold all requisite licences from the Ghana Food and Drugs Authority (FDA), the Pharmacy Council of Ghana, and other relevant regulatory bodies. Our premises, processes, and personnel meet or exceed all applicable standards set by Ghanaian law and international pharmaceutical best practice guidelines.
Regular internal and external audits are conducted to verify compliance across all operational areas. Any identified gaps are immediately addressed through corrective and preventive action (CAPA) processes, ensuring continuous improvement and sustained regulatory adherence.
BASE PHARMACY holds a valid and current pharmaceutical establishment licence issued by the Ghana Food and Drugs Authority. This licence is renewed annually following a comprehensive inspection of our premises, inventory management systems, personnel qualifications, and operational procedures. We maintain open and transparent communication with FDA inspectors at all times.
All pharmacists employed by BASE PHARMACY are registered practitioners in good standing with the Pharmacy Council of Ghana. Their annual practising certificates are maintained and prominently displayed as required by law. Only registered pharmacists are authorised to dispense prescription medicines within our facility, in strict compliance with the Pharmacy Act.
We adhere to the World Health Organisation's Good Dispensing Practice guidelines and the Pharmacy Council of Ghana's dispensing protocols. This includes prescription verification, drug interaction checking, patient counselling, accurate labelling, and complete dispensing records for all prescription medications. Our dispensing area is designed to ensure patient privacy and minimise dispensing errors.
All pharmaceutical products entering our supply chain are verified against approved supplier lists, batch documentation is reviewed, and products are inspected upon receipt for damage, tampering, and expiry compliance. We maintain a rigorous product recall procedure aligned with Ghana FDA guidelines, ensuring rapid response to any safety notifications.
Temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals — including vaccines, insulin, certain biologics, and heat-labile antibiotics — are stored and handled in accordance with cold chain management best practices. We maintain calibrated temperature monitoring equipment, backup power systems for refrigeration units, and detailed cold chain logs that are available for regulatory inspection at any time.
The management of controlled substances at BASE PHARMACY is governed by the strictest possible protocols, in full compliance with Ghana's Narcotic Drugs Law and the requirements of the FDA's Narcotics Control Programme. All controlled substances are stored in secure, locked facilities, dispensed only against valid prescriptions, and fully accounted for in our controlled substance register.
BASE PHARMACY has a zero-tolerance policy for counterfeit medicines. Every product entering our inventory undergoes a multi-layer verification process including supplier credential verification, batch record review, physical inspection, and — where applicable — serialisation checks. Any product suspected of being counterfeit is immediately quarantined, removed from sale, and reported to the Ghana FDA. We actively participate in national anti-counterfeiting initiatives and encourage our clients to report any concerns about product authenticity directly to our pharmacists.
We collect and process patient data solely for the purposes of providing pharmaceutical services and ensuring patient safety. All patient information — including prescription details, medical history disclosed during consultations, and personal identifiers — is held in strict confidence and protected under Ghana's Data Protection Act. Patient data is never shared with third parties without explicit consent, except where legally required (e.g., adverse drug reaction reporting to FDA). Our digital and paper records are secured against unauthorised access through appropriate technical and administrative safeguards.
In the event of a product recall notice from Ghana FDA, a manufacturer, or identified through our own quality monitoring, BASE PHARMACY activates its product recall procedure immediately. All affected stock is quarantined, patients who received the recalled product are contacted where records permit, and a full report is submitted to the FDA within the required timeframe. A dedicated recall coordinator ensures that all recall actions are completed promptly and documented comprehensively.
Ongoing professional development is mandatory for all BASE PHARMACY staff. Pharmacists are required to maintain their continuing professional development (CPD) requirements as mandated by the Pharmacy Council of Ghana. All dispensing and support staff undergo regular in-house training on dispensing protocols, customer service, product knowledge, and regulatory updates. Competency assessments are conducted annually, and training records are maintained for inspection purposes.
BASE PHARMACY welcomes and actively encourages feedback from all stakeholders. All complaints — whether related to product quality, service, or staff conduct — are taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. A dedicated complaints register is maintained, and all complaints are acknowledged within 24 hours and resolved within 7 working days. Where complaints reveal systemic issues, corrective actions are implemented and communicated back to the complainant. Clients can submit complaints in person, by phone at +233 302 672 317, or by email at info@basac.org.
