Visual Pharmacy Overview

Visual Pharmacy^® for Windows represents the accumulation of 15 years of experience in pharmacy dispensing system design. Written for the Windows XP Pro/2000 environment, Visual Pharmacy has been designed to maximize the advantage of a graphical interface.

Visual Pharmacy's information is organized and displayed in small groups so that users are not overwhelmed. At the same time, users have quick access to all the information necessary to safely and efficiently fill a prescription.

In every instance, care has been taken to make Visual Pharmacy as intuitive as possible. Because many processes have been automated for the user, the pharmacist can concentrate more on the patient and the medications they are taking.
