Boxes

  • Pouch packages are usually produced in long strips then rolled and placed into a box or container. These are also referred to as strip meds.
  • Pouch packaging is usually shipped in a 7, 14, or 30-day supply. These rolls vary in size as a patient may get one pouch a day or 5 pouches a day thus a 30-day supply could have 150 pouches.
  • Each pouch may also contain one pill or as many as 10 pills also contributing to a larger roll circumference.
  • The boxes containing the pouches are usually assembled on site and the rolled pouch medications are placed into the box. The box usually has an opening allowing the first header bag.
