PROmanager-Rx™

PROmanager-Rx helps you get the most out of manufacturer-packaged oral solid medications and relieves the burden of medication packaging.

It's the only fully automated pharmacy dispensing system that directly stores and dispenses pre-packaged unit-dose oral solids. Bar-code-driven robotics scan every dose for the greatest possible safety and accuracy. Pharmacists are freed from packaging and dispensing activities, so they can play more integral roles on the clinical care team and improve patient care.

	"Between improved staff satisfaction, automation of the picking process, and improved safety, PROmanager-Rx is a big win. On the front end, we can order a pre-packaged product direct from a wholesaler, receive it, and immediately put it into our medication-use process. And because we have a check waiver in place from the Ohio Board of Pharmacy, we can improve patient safety at the same time we're minimizing pharmacist involvement in cart fill " — Charles McCluskey, Pharm.D. Director of Pharmacy Services Riverside Methodist Hospital, Columbus, OH
	Additional Quotes

PROmanager-Rx is the only automated pharmaceutical dispensing system specifically designed for accurate dispensing of manufacturer-packaged oral solid medications. It is ideal for patient-centric filling, with bar-code-driven robotics scanning every dose to prevent medication errors for the greatest possible safety and accuracy.

Pharmacists are freed from packaging and dispensing activities so they can play more integral roles on the clinical care team. Bar-code scanning also simplifies tasks such as managing returns, expired meds, and overall inventory.

The automated pharmaceutical dispensing system receives patient orders electronically from the Connect-Rx® system. The system reads the patient bar code label, associates the patient’s information with the Connect-Rx order, rotates the storage carousel to the position where the medication is stored, scans and selects the medication, and then delivers it either to a cassette on the bin conveyor or to a front chute, where the dispense is verified by bar-code ID scanning.

Automatic Restocking

The PROmanager-Rx system automatically restocks itself using bar-coded restocking trays. The operator fills the restocking trays with unit-dose medications, loads the trays into the restock drawer, and notifies the system that the medications are ready for restocking. It scans each tray to determine the inventory expiration date; scans each medication to verify medication identification and to assign a storage location; and picks and places the medication into its assigned location.

Returned medications are handled in much the same way. The patient-specific container is scanned as are the individual medications to accomplish full crediting before loading medications into the restock trays.
