Cash & Carry Dispensing
Prescription medication labeling requirements are established by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and in some cases supplemented by state regulations. In general, most prescription drugs dispensed to patients must include the following information:
Common name of the drug and strength
Quantity of contents
Patient name
- Date of issue
- Instructions for use
- Drug expiration date
Name of prescriber
Address and phone number of prescriber
Manufacturer and/or repackager identification
Some states may also have additional requirements or restrictions, such as font size (California for example requires certain pieces of information to be in a larger font). PharmaLink’s system helps you comply with labeling requirements; however, we do recommend checking with your respective state medical and pharmacy board to ensure all requirements are being met.
If you have any specific questions about medication labeling or PharmaLink’s services, or if you’re ready to get started please contact us and a representative will get back to you shortly.
