The league leaders looked to carry that momentum into the second half, but Kotoko returned with greater urgency as they searched for a response in front of their home supporters.
Their persistence paid off in the 55th minute when Hamzarat rose highest to connect with a well-worked set-piece routine, directing a powerful header into the net to restore parity.
The equaliser lifted the atmosphere at Baba Yara as the Porcupine Warriors fought to turn the contest around, while Medeama sought to regain their advantage.
Neither side could find another breakthrough, however, as the match ended with the points shared.
The result denied Medeama a victory on the road, while Kotoko had to settle for a point despite recovering from a first-half deficit.
Both teams will now turn their attention to their next league assignments as the Ghana Premier League campaign continues.
