TORBAL ® Rx brings you pillcounting.com - experience our tablet counters, learn about our technology, understand the features...
As we move forward into the 21st Century, it may be difficult to predict how the pharmacy business will change. As advances are made, a pharmacy must adopt new technology if it wishes to remain efficient. However, Torbal will always keep pace with the cutting edge of pharmacy technology and offer the right solutions at the right price.
Though technology advances, the needs of human beings remain constant. For example, every spring brings out the worst for those who suffer chronic allergies. Specially formulated and compounded medications will be needed, and for that you need the best compounding scale you can get. Torbal pharmacy scales will always fit the bill. Our scales are certified to meet all NTEP standards, so you can count on them for the accuracy you need.
The accurate counting of pills will also be a factor the pharmacy of the future, because you can count ( no pun intended ) on pills being a primary method of medicine delivery method until something better comes along. A proper pill count is something that the pharmacy must be able to deliver consistently, day in and day out, no matter what the volume of business is. Human error can creep into the process as distractions loom and fatigue sets in. Torbal prescription scales greatly help to minimize the effect of human error. The large graphical displays make it very clear how many pills have been dispensed. Nine pill-counting features aid the pharmacist in making sure the right number of the right pills go out – no more, no less. Another special advantage to the Torbal scales is the lack of cross-contamination – you don’t have to worry about things like sleep aids being coated in dust from heart stimulants, for example.
The durability of the scale in a busy pharmacy environment is also an important factor when considering a potential scale. The daily activity of a pharmacy can be tremendous, and cause wear on the pharmacy’s weighing devices. Torbal scales are manufactured with die-cast metal housings and durable moving parts to make sure that the pharmacy is always prepared to handle a high volume of prescriptions without a hitch.
It is impossible to imagine a pharmacy functioning properly without a scale behind the counter. Torbal scales will always be there to meet the needs of the modern pharmacist – for now and on into the future.
3 Ways to Prevent Cross Contamination with Instrumentation |
Nearly a year ago, Brazilian competitive swimmers Cesar Cielo, Henrique Barbosa and others were found to have furosemide, combined with the possibility of the substance coming from cross-contamination. While these athletes got a warning, it could have been much more severe – they could have lost their chance to compete as well as their reputations. Cross contamination should be avoided across all industries, but none so much as in the pharmaceutical industry for many reasons. For instance, a drug, especially one like penicillin could create a hyper-sensitivity and even death in some patients. It is commonplace to think that the best way to avoid this is by having a supremely sterile environment for both manufacturing and packaging of items. |
