Automated on-demand generation of custom physical labels for medication containers

Abstract

A computer system includes memory storing a database including a label text table for storing multiple label texts each associated with a national drug code (NDC), a fields table, and a field options table. A processor is configured to execute instructions including receiving drug input from a user indicative of a specified NDC, querying the database to obtain a label text associated with the specified NDC, at least one field associated with the obtained label text, and multiple field options associated with the obtained field, building a data structure, converting the data structure to a user interface for displaying the obtained label text, the obtained field, and the multiple obtained field options, receiving a user selection of one of the multiple obtained field options, and printing the label text including the updated field to a label and/or saving the label text including the updated field to a record database.
