Pharmaceutical Unit Dose
The Pharmaceutical industry uses bar codes for many applications, including Unit Dose labeling and for quality control of labeling.In the United States, FDA regulations require Unit Dose labeling of pharmaceutical products to encode the NDC (National Drug Code) number within a linear barcode.
In France, a new regulation, CIP13, by AFSSAPS goes into effect in on January 1st, 2011, effectively requiring a 2D Data Matrix. There is a similar law in Turkey, requiring the full tracking of healthcare products from their production or importation to the pharmacy sale. Similar requirements are, or are expected to be in effect in other European countries. Proposals are in the works in Brazil, China, Serbia, and South Korea. |
