Medi-Dose
The Medi-Dose® Group, known for its innovative solid and liquid oral unit dose packaging systems, has always had deep roots—family roots. This is not surprising since Medi-Dose began as a small family business. Medi-Dose was founded in 1971 when Milton Braverman, a former pharmaceutical company Territory Manager, formed his own company.
The requirements of USP <800> prohibit the use of automated packaging for hazardous medications. Fortunately, the Medi-Dose® unit dose system has been designed to be the easiest, fastest, and most cost-effective way to unit dose and bar code your inventory. Because of its unique Cold-Seal technology, the Medi-Dose System is simple to use, requires no special in-service training or additional space and can be an essential part of your USP <800> compliance plan.
The finished package provides tamper-evidence, ultraviolet inhibitance, moisture protection … and even 1-year beyond-use dating! There are 13 different styles of blisters, including JUMBO blisters for large tablets or capsules, MINI blisters designed for saving space in medication bins, and OVAL blisters for a variety of dispensing cabinets.
Medi-Dose’s MILT® software provides complete medication identification and bar coding capabilities for all your labeling needs:
- Solids
- Liquids
- Syringes
- Ampules
- IV’s
- Equipment
It includes a wide library of auxiliary label images with special emphasis on those calling attention to the special handling required for meds covered by USP <800>. Flexible formatting (different colors, fonts, even Tall-Man Lettering), laser and thermal printing, and customizable workflow for your facility are all available through the program.
