Speed / Efficiency

SYNMED® WILL PICK AND DISPENSE 55 DOSES PER MINUTE.

SynMed® reduces production time
by up to 80% compared to manual
preparation.

In practice, one technician has been shown
to produce:
> Up to 110 single dose blister packs per hour
> Up to 50 multi-dose blister packs per hour
> 200 multi-dose blister packs in an 8-hour shift
> 1,000+ multi-dose blister packs over their

regular weekly schedule
> Pharmacist verification time

will be reduced by at least 50%,
due to the system accuracy
and proprietary verification
markers on the label.

Accuracy

BARCODE AND BIOMETRIC SCANNING ENSURES SECURE PRODUCTION
AND TRACKS RESPONSIBILITY.

> The system accuracy is 99.98%,
meaning only 1 potential error for
each 5,000 tablets

> The label identifies the quantity
of medications expected in each blister.

> Unlike pouch technology, any error
is identified by the operator before
the card is sealed, which avoids
any modification to the packaging
and substantially diminishes
the intervention time.

Versatility & Flexibility

SYNMED® CONTAINS 400 + MEDICATION CONTAINERS;
WILL COVER 98% OF ALL MEDICATIONS REQUIRED.

SynMed® can adapt and interchange between both
single and multi-dose blister packs.

> SynMed® is compatible with 35 (and growing) blister packs.
> SynMed® will interface with your existing pharmacy management system;

no double data entry.
> SynMed® will interface

with your system for eMAR.
