Meet FDA Drug Bar Code Requirements for Improved
Patient Safety
On March 13, 2003, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) issued a new proposed rule that will require pharmaceuticals,
biologics, vaccines, blood and blood products, and over-the-counter
products commonly used in hospitals to be bar coded at the
unit-of-use level. A final rule is expected by the end of
the year. Zebra welcomes this rule as an important step in
improving patient safety.
For details about the FDA's marking requirements, and more
information on Zebra's position on the ruling, click here.
