It's 6 PM on a Tuesday. You're down to your last 3 pills. The pharmacy closes in an hour, but you're stuck in traffic. Your phone buzzes; a work email that can't wait. Tomorrow's your sibling's school event. When exactly are you supposed to fit in a pharmacy run?
If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. Nearly 1 in 2 Nigerians miss their medications regularly due to the chaos of daily life. That could be you, your colleague sitting next to you, or an ageing parent at home.
But here's the truth: your health shouldn't feel this hard to manage.
Over 5,000 Nigerians have already discovered a better way with Famasi Care Plans — automated refills, personalised support, and consistent pricing that takes the stress out of medication management. Here's how to know if it can benefit you, too.
You're Always Behind on Refills or Forgetting Your Doses
Last month, Mr. Adeleke's blood pressure medication ran out on a Friday. He meant to refill it over the weekend but got busy with family obligations. By Monday, he was feeling dizzy. By Wednesday, he was in the emergency room with a hypertensive crisis, and just like that, ₦180,000 in medical bills that could have been avoided.
The statistics are sobering: 68% of patients in Nigeria struggle with moderate to low medication adherence. The World Health Organisation reports that medication non-adherence leads to increased hospitalisations, worse health outcomes, and preventable complications. In fact, 20-30% of all hospital admissions globally are related to people simply not taking their medications as prescribed.
But with a personalised care plan, you can simply automate your refills. Your medications arrive at your door on schedule, every time. Plus, our smart reminder system sends you personalised alerts via SMS, WhatsApp, or app notification so you never miss a dose. The average Famasi customer saves 4–6 hours per month on medication management. That's time you get back for your family, your work, or simply yourself.
"I haven't missed a single dose in 3 months. The reminders come right when I need them, and my medication just shows up. It's like having a personal health assistant." — Chioma A., Lagos
You're Jumping Between Pharmacies Chasing Deals
Sound familiar? You call 3 different pharmacies to compare prices. One has your medication but charges ₦20,500. Another offers it for ₦15,200, but it's out of stock. A third pharmacy is cheaper, but across town. You spend an hour on the phone and on the road to multiple pharmacies, burning energy and losing time you'll never get back.
57% of Nigerians report struggling with rising medication costs, and many spend a substantial portion of their income on out-of-pocket expenses. But here's the hidden cost: the stress, the inconsistency, and the gaps in treatment that happen when your pharmacy relationship is transactional instead of continuous.
With a care plan, you get transparent, consistent pricing and exclusive discounts on your medications. You'll compare prices within minutes, know exactly what you're paying the next month, and budget your healthcare expenses without surprises. Famasi customers save an average of 15-25% on their regular prescriptions.
You Don't Have Anyone Who Actually Knows Your Health History, Except Your Mother
How many pharmacies have you visited in the past year? If you're like 42% of Nigerians, you don't have a consistent pharmacy partner. You're pharmacy-hopping based on convenience, price, or whoever has your medication in stock that day.
The problem? Each time you start fresh, no one has an accurate recording of your history, your allergies, or the concerns you had last week. And when 62% of Nigerians report not having enough information about their prescriptions, this fragmented approach becomes genuinely dangerous. Medication errors, dangerous drug interactions, and confusion about side effects can be life-threatening.
Here's what changes: Famasi Care Plans give you a dedicated healthcare team that actually knows you. We track your medication history, understand your health journey, and provide continuous support. Have a question about side effects at 10 PM? Remi is there for you. No more relying on Dr. Google and getting conflicting, sometimes harmful, information.
You'll also get regular check-ins to ensure your medications are working, your refills are on track, and you're getting the outcomes you deserve. This is care, not just commerce.
“I've really enjoyed the intentionality of the service. I never intentionally communicated that I was going to be buying this drug monthly, but without prompting, I was reached out to, and I've been reached out to since, even serving as a reminder. That's been a true lifesaver.” — Olu N., Abuja
What Exactly Is a Famasi Care Plan?
Think of it as a monthly, quarterly, or yearly fee for a stress-free medication management. Here's what you get:
Automated Refills: Your medications delivered to your door, on schedule, every time
Smart Reminders: Personalised alerts via email, SMS, WhatsApp, or in-app so you never miss a dose
Dedicated Support: Access to Care Specialists for health guidance
Transparent Pricing: Consistent costs and exclusive discounts according to your plan duration (15-25% average savings)
Health Tracking: Monitor your progress and get regular check-ins from your care team
Prescription Coordination: We handle renewals and communication with your doctor and other healthcare providers you may need
Plans start at ₦5,000/month. That's less than you spend on multiple pharmacy visits, especially in Lagos. And right now, your first order is 10% off.
The Question You're Probably Asking
“Is this just another subscription I don't need?”
Fair question. Here's how to think about it: What did medication chaos cost you last month, the previous months, or years?
The fuel and time hunting for the best price?
The productivity lost to missed doses and health complications?
The stress of constantly managing refills in your head?
The emergency room visit that could have been prevented?
For Mrs. Ogunleye, a teacher in Ibadan, the answer was clear: “I was spending around ₦2,000 monthly just on each transport to different pharmacies, and I missed 7 days of work last year in June because I couldn't get my pain medication. Now, my care plan costs less than the sum of my monthly transport used to, and I haven't missed a dose since.”
Our promise: try it for 30 days. If it doesn't make your life easier, you can cancel anytime. No questions asked, no penalties.
The Life You Could Be Living Instead
Imagine waking up without that nagging worry about whether you have enough medication. Picture your Sunday afternoon free because you're not making yet another pharmacy run. Think about the peace of mind knowing that someone is actually tracking your health history and has your back.
This isn't fantasy, and every day without a Care Plan is another day managing your health the difficult way. Let us handle the hard parts so you can focus on actually living.
