The company has a well-equipped analytical laboratory where all the raw materials including herbs are identified before taking into production. To make HASLAB a success Late Dr. K.B. Rastogi was well supported by his son Dr. V. K. Rastogi, MBBS, DTCD, MF Hom (London) who played a pivotal role in creating a niche in the homeopathic world.

Challenges and Opportunities

There were many challenges faced by the company. “To convince people about the positive results of Homeopathic treatment had been one of the most cumbersome challenges that I ever faced,” he says. “However, the biggest challenge that I had to overcome was between combination remedies v/s single remedies.  

Combination remedies are those that are meant to address multiple symptoms in a single formula while single remedies are those that are more targeted. The single remedies have to provided by a skilled Homoeopath having vast experience and knowledge of the system. However, HASLAB took the lead and went in to promote combination remedies which come into action to be used by a common man where the medical help is at distant reach.

Secondly, there have been a number of myths pertaining to the homeopathy and busting these myths has been the most difficult challenge that we had to face. Some common myths that people believe in are:

  • Homeopathic medicines are placebos
  • Homeopathic medicines contain steroids and heavy metals
  • Homeopathic medicines act slowly

To bust these myths and make people believe in the power of homeopathic medicines has been quite challenging,” he explains. Amit Rastogi faced a lot of struggles during his journey but he never gave up. He worked hard and learned from his mistakes. “I like to maintain a consistent level of productivity and take both my success and failures in stride. I try to learn from both and apply that knowledge to future situations,” he says.

Technology Driven World

Today, the entire world is driven by technology and in today’s competitive world technology can be leveraged in smarter and more effective ways to improve the performance and flexibility of employees. 

The company promotes a team-based learning environment so that the employees can spend more time with each staff member and gain a thoughtful insight into the valuable contributions of each team member. 

“Being socially responsible can strengthen both a company’s brand and image. We have a team of dedicated medical experts who have been working hard and carrying out extensive research and development to provide the best quality products to the consumers without any side effects, asserts Amit.” 

He is a member of the Sub Committee of Ayush under the chairmanship of the secretary (Ayush) for suggesting the amendments in the Drugs and Cosmetic Act. HASLAB has always believed in serving the patients and their families, with dignity and respect. To improve the health infrastructure of the state, they conduct extensive research that has led to major improvements in health care and health status for all. In fact, HASLAB is the first Homeopathic Indian brand that launched its first mobile application, “Dr. HASLAB” which comes as an expansion of digital health technologies and increasing efforts by medical practitioners to extend patient experience and loyalty. 

Even in these stressful times, you can opt for online medical consultation and check-ups via smartphone. This is just the beginning of health technology in India.
