Question

Define unit dose packaging

Answer 1

Unit dose packaging is a method of single drug-dose delivery in barcoded, non-reusable containers. Used primarily in hospital or clinic settings, unit dose packaging holds a specified quantity of medication in single-use containers so patients get the exact dose they need.

Unit dose packaging (also known as "compliance packaging" or "regulatory packaging") is used for both liquid and solid drugs. This type of drug packaging can take many forms, including blister cards, strips, pouches, sticks, vials, and prefilled syringes.”

The term can also apply to things like inhalers or prefilled syringes. You also see this in over the counter medications too. The most common example would be blister packs of cold medicine or pain relievers like aspirin.
