Formulary

A simplified medication knowledge resource

Modern medication management is a complex activity for which clinicians require substantial and detailed knowledge about medicines to ensure that the ‘five rights’ are achieved.

Our Formulary is a modern, cloud-based decision support solution for medication management by medical, nursing and pharmacy clinicians within your service. Accessible via smart devices in addition to desktop PCs, it was the first of its kind in Australia to combine all clinical, regulatory, and jurisdictional medication knowledge resources into one place, providing a single point of reference for clinicians at their fingertip.

Features include:
