American Health Packaging Unit Dose - Safety Every Step of the Way

Patient safety is a critical issue for health systems. As a result, many health systems seek bar coded products to dispense to patients. Bar coded products, in conjunction with bedside point-of-care (BPOC) systems, automate the "five rights." American Health Packaging supports this health systems' priority with its growing line of unit dose products. Located in Columbus, Ohio, American Health Packaging has been in business for over 15 years.

Bar coded to the dose level, our unit dose line has grown substantially in recent years. The line now contains over 250 SKUs. Recent launches include psychiatric care items, neuromuscular care products as well as those that support pain management.

Our products are stability tested to ensure extended shelf life. An added safety feature, specially designed color-coded labels with “tall man” lettering help to different product (and strengths) on the pharmacy shelf.

Our products are awarded to top GPO's and are stocked by the major wholesalers. New items are launched regularly. Visit americanhealthpackaging.com monthly for information on our recently launched unit dose products.
