FAQs
Does Pak-EDGE® meet DSCSA serialization requirements?
Yes. Pak-EDGE® prints the product identifier DSCSA requires on each prescription drug package, including a serial number, batch number, and expiry date inside a 2D data matrix barcode. The software meets serialization requirements for pharmaceutical manufacturers and repackagers and keeps the drug labeling records that regulatory compliance depends on.
Does pharmaceutical labeling software need to meet FDA regulations?
Yes. Pharmaceutical labeling in the United States follows rules from the FDA, the regulatory authority for the industry, along with drug labeling standards under 21 CFR Part 201. Accurate labels are a regulatory requirement across the pharmaceutical industry, since a mislabeled pharmaceutical product can lead to medication errors. Pak-EDGE® helps facilities print consistent, compliant labels that hold the required product information.
Can Pak-EDGE® update label data in real time?
Yes. Pak-EDGE® works from a live label database, so a label update applies the next time a template runs. Teams edit product information, barcode fields, and a digital label design in one place, and every connected system prints from the current version. Real-time control over label data keeps drug information accurate as products and requirements change.
What barcode formats and printers does Pak-EDGE® support?
Pak-EDGE® supports standard linear and 2D/GS1 barcodes, QR codes, and data matrix codes, so pharmacies and repackagers can meet different compliance and labeling requirements. It works with MPI’s full line of packaging and labeling equipment, including thermal transfer printers and Pharmacy Accessory Label Printers (PALP), with matching printer drivers for reliable barcode printing and clean label output.
Does Pak-EDGE® include label templates and data import tools?
Yes. Pak-EDGE® comes with pre-built label templates and a label designer for customizing layouts, barcode placement, and text fields, with no separate label design program. Built-in import tools pull data from CSV and text files directly into the software, and the optional First Databank connection cuts manual data entry further.
Who is Pak-EDGE® barcode labeling software designed for?
Pak-EDGE® is designed for hospitals and acute care pharmacies, long-term care and extended care facilities, independent and retail pharmacies, specialty pharmaceutical manufacturers, CDMOs, pharmaceutical repackagers, and dental pharmacies. Any organization that needs compliant unit dose barcode labeling and packaging can use Pak-EDGE® across healthcare and pharmacy markets.
