warfarin dispensing

Good Morning,

We are considering changing our practice on the way we dispense warfarin. We currently dispense it patient specific as part of our protocol for patient safety goal 3E. We are now considering loading it into our pyxis. Wondering how others are doing this and if any concerns/issues have come to light if your facility uses pyxis for dispensing.

Thank you,
