myAster, the region’s pioneering omnichannel healthcare platform by Aster DM Healthcare, has expanded its pharmacy and wellness delivery services beyond Dubai, introducing round-the-clock express delivery across Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, and Ras Al Khaimah. The service now offers 24×7 express delivery of medicines, health supplements, skincare products, beauty care, and daily wellness essentials, delivering within 90 minutes. This expansion reflects a growing demand from UAE residents for convenient, reliable access to healthcare and wellness products at their doorstep, especially in an increasingly digital-first world.
Launched in July 2022, myAster has rapidly transformed the region’s healthcare access by becoming the UAE’s first fully integrated digital health and wellness ecosystem. With over 2.8 million downloads and having served more than 2 million users in just three years, the platform has reshaped how patients access pharmacy, wellness products, doctor consultations, lab reports, and chronic disease management services. In the fiscal year 2024 alone, myAster facilitated over 1 million appointment bookings, with two-thirds of physical appointments at Aster Hospitals booked via the app.
Nalla Karunanithy, CEO of Digital Health and E-Commerce at Aster DM Healthcare, emphasized the broader vision of myAster, stating, “This expansion is not just about convenience, but about building a health and wellness ecosystem that truly revolves around patients. By extending our express 24×7 delivery services beyond Dubai, we are responding to the evolving needs of today’s consumers, who expect seamless healthcare access from the comfort of their homes.”
The 24×7 express delivery service stands apart from myAster’s standard delivery option, allowing customers across the five Emirates to receive essential medicines and wellness products within 90 minutes. This service has gained strong traction in Dubai, especially its popular 60-minute delivery model, and is now being scaled to meet increasing consumer demand across the UAE.
With its recent launch in Saudi Arabia and ongoing efforts to expand the ecosystem, myAster continues to position itself as the region’s most inclusive and accessible healthcare superapp. The platform’s expansion not only supports individual well-being but also contributes to the UAE’s broader goals of digital innovation and advanced healthcare service delivery.
