The clean design is more reminiscent of a computer store.
No shelves but armchairs and a sofa.
However, as the storefront indicates, it is indeed a pharmacy.
The first of the Toulouse start-up MonOrdo, opened a month ago in Toulouse.
“I detected that there were treatment management issues.
And France has a certain delay in the digital transformation of pharmacies, ”explains Sébastien Bonnet, doctor of pharmacy and graduate of Essec, co-founder of the company with Léo Pechin, computer engineer.
According to the two men, non-compliance with chronic treatments leads to more than 100,000 hospitalizations per year, 8,000 deaths and one billion euros in wasted drugs.
MonOrdo therefore wants to tackle this issue by proposing "a service model to help patients take charge and refocus pharmacists on their role as caregivers".

Concretely, in the pharmacy or via the application developed by the start-up, the patient or his caregiver can submit his prescription and, like what exists in hospital pharmacies, a robot will prepare and package the prescriptions.
"The prescription is renewed automatically and the drugs can be picked up at the pharmacy or delivered to your home," says Sébastien Bonnet.
Soon in the 22 largest cities in France
An innovative approach that intends to dust off the sector and stand out from that of brands that use volume to cut prices.
“The goal is to free up time for the pharmacist for his advice missions.
Create a different relationship with the patient.
“While it has eight employees today, MonOrdo, labeled by the Ministry of Health, relies on the democratization of e-prescription to develop its model.
A second opening is scheduled for 2022 in another city and the Toulouse company wants to cover the twenty-two largest cities in France within 5 years, with a single dispensary in each.
