Quality Matters When It Comes to Reading Prescription Labels
There are industry standards as regulated by Health Canada when it comes to presenting information on prescription pill bottles. Reading prescription labels shouldn’t feel cumbersome to pharmacy customers. Relevant information must appear on the label concisely and clearly to ensure the patient uses the medication safely and correctly, as prescribed by their physician. Mislabeling prescription bottles with illegible typeface or inaccurate instructions may lead to severe medication errors that could have been prevented. The following information should appear on every pharmacy prescription label in Canada:
- Medication’s name and strength
- Physical description of the medication
- Prescription date and quantity
- Number of prescription refills remaining
- Dosage/usage instructions
- Patient’s name and contact information
- Prescribing physician’s name
- Appropriate medication warnings (may cause drowsiness, take with food, do not take with alcohol, keep out of the reach of children, for oral use only, etc.)
- Prescription’s serial identification number and barcode
- Pharmacy contact information
- Recommended prescription discard date
Additional instructions are typically found on an accompanying pharmacy information sheet, including usage recommendations, potential side effects, and further warnings and precautions. Because pharmacy prescription labels convey crucial information, they must be printed on high-quality materials for legibility and safety purposes. Incomplete or hard-to-read labels may be potentially life-threatening for your pharmacy’s patients. Rely on our professional label printers to get the job done.
