Track Side-Effects
Steps to track side effects for beneficiaries
Overview
A distributor can record the side effects experienced by a beneficiary after consuming the drug. The list of side effects can be configured based on the specific campaign being conducted.
Key Features
Allows administrators to record side effects for drugs delivered to the beneficiaries after every dose consumed by the beneficiary.
The distributor can record the side-effects for both direct delivery, where all the doses of the drug is administered directly to the beneficiary, as well as for indirect deliver,y where the beneficiary is provided with all the remaining doses by the distributor at the same time and is asked to administer the drug on their own.
