SynMed: efficiency, reliability & patient benefits

36% of the elderly regularly take at least 5 drugs1 , and almost 20% take 10 or more 2. However, the greater the number of drugs taken, the greater the risk of non-adherence to treatment. To help patients follow their treatment(s) correctly, drugs can be dispensed in multi-dose blister cards. In fact, one study showed an increase in treatment compliance, from 61% to 96%, when blister cards were used. 3 Thanks to SynMed technology, it’s easier than ever to offer this drug administration aid solution!

1. What is SynMed?

It’s an automated dispensing system for oral solid drugs in single- and multi-dose blister cards. Thanks to its patented pick-and-place technology, SynMed accurately selects and dispenses oral solids into blister cards.

"We started with our first system in 2018 and we now have our second system, the ULTRA. That has increased our efficiency by probably 50% at least."
US
Sara H.Pharmacist, Lewis Drug
"The visual presentation of the blister card is superb: the number of medications in each cell is indicated. This is true for pharmacists, but the labelling is also greatly appreciated by our technicians and of course our customers, and people who take care of patients in residences."
Canada
Philippe-André ChampouxPharmacist, Jean Coutu Victoriaville
“The unique selling point for the SynMed was the speed, the efficiency. It has changed the way we run our business on a day-to-day basis, it has helped pharmacists develop other services.”

For us, these are all tools that allow us to create the educational part that pharmacy is looking for: how do we create this environment where we can be the healthcare advisor on medical concerns to get patients to be better patients."
US
