The recent launches are expected to replace Omnicell’s RxMap and MTS branded blister cards and work as an alternative for those in the future, the firm said.

"The introduction of SureMed continues our commitment to support pharmacists as they strive to increase medication adherence among their patients."

More than one million patients have been found to use Omnicell’s adherence packaging products for managing their medications, both at homes and post-acute care settings.

Used as a part of comprehensive pharmacy care programme, the multimed blister packaging solutions have increased adherence rates for medicines from 61% to 97%.

Hometown Pharmacy community pharmacist and owner Shawn Nairn said: "SureMed takes the notion of the classic pill box and simplifies the adherence process by having the pharmacist presort the medications, and also keeps each patient on track by clearly identifying which meds to take at the appropriate time of day."
