Hazardous and Reproductive Risk Medication Labeling

We have been streamlining our hazardous and reproductive risk medication processes here, which included automated alerts into our ADCs and carousel for front-line staff.

I am reaching out to other facilities to see how they handle labeling hazardous and/or reproductive risk medications, especially for intact oral tablets. Do you label every tablet individually or do you label only its packaging/container (i.e. baggie)? Any other different approaches?

Thank you!
