Abstract
A pharmaceutical order processing system for filling prescription orders in dose-based packaging includes a pathway and a plurality of individual dispensing pharmaceutical ('IDP') dispensers. The IDP dispenser dispenses pharmaceuticals one at a time and is movable along the pathway. A dose-based packager is positioned adjacent the pathway. The dose-based packager receives pharmaceuticals from one or more of the IDP dispensers when said one or more IDP dispensers are disposed adjacent the dose-based packager. The dose-based packager packages pharmaceuticals received from the one or more IDP dispensers in dose-based packaging.
