Interested in other organizations process and policy on dispensing one dose in multiple syringes (i.e. large doses of subcut insulin, chemotherapy regimens):
1) If a single dose requires multiple syringes, do you require separate line items on the MAR?
2) Are you using one label for both syringes or labeling both with the same label and indicating 1/2, 2/2, etc?
Any insight would be appreciated!
