ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To explore the problems of the management and identification of the none packaging medicines (This article refers to the bare tablets, capsules and pills.) in the hospital. METHODS: The problems of the management and identification of the none packaging medicines were analyzed and summarized by investigating some hospitals that use the automatic-pack machine to package medicines. RESULTS: Some security risks exist during the management of none packaging drugs in hospitals. The none packaging medicines can not be effectively checked because of lack of standard control when the nurses administered them. CONCLUSION: Measures proposed in this paper can provide ideas and methods for solving these problems and help promote medication safety.
