latest tools and technology to insure your accuracy when entering data.

Auto Calculations Based off of Typical Dispensing
When writing an Rx for a mother to give to her child, we want to make dosing as easy as possible.
Our system allows a user to auto calculate dispensing so that it will automatically round up or down.
We do not want mom wondering how to give 3.2 mL
and we save the provider time by letting the computer do the work.

Daily Max
Daily Max acts as a safety precaution when writing a prescription. Setup in the back-end, the system recognizes when a higher dose than
allowed is entered into the prescription fields. This is very valuable when it comes to typos and miscalculations.

setup to display individual alerts. For each individual drug you can also set a Daily Max and Per Dose Max.
