How do I add a new drug to Fred Dispense?

Fred Dispense

You can add a new drug to Fred Dispense if it does not exist in the Fred Dispense drug file.

In Fred Dispense, the Own Brand (Private) Drug database is where you can add, delete and update items of your own, separate from the main drug file.

These items are available for selection when dispensing but are not altered by updates to the Fred Dispense drug file.

Use Own Brand Drugs only for drugs which are not likely to be added to the main file—for example, private drugs or extemporaneous items that you make up on a regular basis.

To create an Own Brand Drug

1. In Fred Dispense, select Lists > Own Brand Drugs.
2. Select Add.
