bulk bottles in ADC

Hi everyone,

I am wondering how everyone handles bulk bottles (ie, amoxicillin reconstituted solution) when it comes to ADCs? Do you pull up individual doses into syringes (or dosing cups) and store those in the cabinets instead? It appears that the stability is limited for certain medications (Augmentin) based on a study from 1988.

Thanks!
