Our adherence and compliance-enhancing packaging solutions drive efficiencies by eliminating avoidable product repackaging and handling. They're designed to save pharmacist time and help reduce medication errors.

Pharmacists are the key to successful product delivery to patients.

The U.S. prescription filling process typically involves repackaging of pills from bulk manufacturer bottles into unit of use vials for patients. The current processes present some challenges and inefficiencies. Counting and repackaging pills is time consuming, limiting the amount of time pharmacy staff can spend answering questions and counseling patients. Repackaging and handling pills often results in counting errors and pill contamination.

MWV delivers statistically proven adherence packaging solutions for pharmacies.

MWV Healthcare has over a decade of expertise in proven solutions like Shellpak that drive adherence for patients and efficiencies for pharmacies. According to a recent study, “Non-adherence is a frequent cause of preventable hospitalizations and patient illnesses and costs the U.S. $300 billion annually.” *

Unlike traditional vials, adherence packaging eliminates the hassle of tedious and error-prone pill counting, and facilitates visual verification, reducing the likelihood of medication errors. Adherence packaging can also save pharmacist time that can better be spent counseling patients. MWV listens to consumers providing input about unique packaging design and our medical plastics delivery systems.
