Our unit-dose prescription drug packaging expertise
As an FDA-registered unit-dose prescription drug repackager, we offer packaging expertise and superior customer service through SKY Unit Dose, our business unit dedicated to distributing generic drugs primarily to hospital and health system pharmacies.
Unit-dose prescription drug packaging is particularly suited for the needs of acute-care, long-term care and specialty pharmacies. Packaging options include state-of-the-art bar-coded, blister-packaged oral solid and liquid medications. Bar-coding is placed on every dose, allowing you to scan medications at the bedside and improve drug safety.
Through SKY Unit Dose, we provide customers with brand-to-generic conversion and bulk-to-unit-dose conversion analysis. This data-driven information is available at no additional cost to you, freeing up your time and money to focus on patient care and clinical programs.
We offer unit-dose packaging of brand name drugs for retail pharmacies through our brand name drug solutions. We repackage bulk-purchased pharmaceuticals and make them available to your retail pharmacy at competitive prices.
