This inventory management system helps chemists reduce counterfeit drug trading. Designed specifically for the developing areas such as the Kenyan market, Miti Health is an affordable solution that utilizes a drug verification lab. This is a particularly pressing problem, as 40% of medical drugs in East Africa are counterfeit, expired or otherwise not up to standard. This results in inadequate health care and perpetuates the cycle of poverty.

The inventory management system includes sales reports and re-ordering features. Miti Health also conducts drug testing at a quality-enhancing lab.
