Report:  Other Medication Dispensed

 

(Topic Last Updated On:  05/05/2010)

 

This report displays all dispensing transactions for 'Other Medications' entered over a selected date range.  This report is similar to the Total Dispensed by Day report, except only 'Other Medication' transactions are displayed instead of normal dosing transactions.  A new page begins for each 'Dosed Date' and 'Other Medication Drug Type'/'Other Medication Dose Type' combination dispensed over the selected date range.  This report is generally only run in facilities dispensing large amounts of additional medications, and printed daily to be filed with daily dispensing records.
