In addition to repackaging, Prescript offers a dispensing
solution called 5MRX Dispensary.
According to Bill Hartig, President of Prescript Pharmaceuticals, “5MRX
Dispensary is a complete dispensing solution, from small physician offices to
large pharmacies. Traditional dispensary
methods are inefficient, taking lots of time and space. Plus these methods introduce potential errors
into the dispensing and labeling process.
With our new dispensary solution, we eliminate the potential for
dispensing errors.”
5MRX Dispensary includes the software application,
Dispensary. The Dispensary software application allows you to track
and trace new prescriptions & refills; order, receive, dispense, and
transfer filled pharmaceutical vials; and import/export data for reports,
including controlled substance submissions.
In
addition, the 5MRX Dispensary includes modular, stackable and lockable storage
containers:
as well as revolutionary, new m-pack® pharmacy vials from M-Pack Systems (www.mpacksystems.com).
The
m-pack’s flat design features 1.8X label space, allowing for the opportunity to
communicate more important information in larger type sizes on an easy to read
flat surface. According to Bill, “with
the m-pack vial, you can use much larger labels than traditional round vials. Larger label real estate allows for bigger
fonts, color images, highlights in color and QR Codes to communicate important
information to the end user; reducing potential errors further. Plus, m-pack flat shape is 1/3rd more space
efficient than an equivalent round vial; and is stackable, rackable and
shippable making prepacking much more effective.”
With
the larger label size, the Dispensary solution is perfect for print on-demand
color labels. Bill recommends the Epson color
label printer for pharmacies to print m-pack vial labels when required at the
point of service. See Bill’s label
design including the pill image with number.
Prescript
Pharmaceuticals sells the hardware (storage containers, etc.), and licenses the
software for a monthly fee.
After
seeing this solution, one key point has become clear to me: Combining the larger labels on the m-pack
vial with software from companies such as Prescript Pharmaceuticals will make
print on-demand color labels the industry standard in pharmacies in the very
near future. Contact me if you want to
discuss how you or your customers can deploy a print on-demand color label pharmacy
solution.
