Drug card filing system - with punched holes in margin of push-through drug cards for easy access and storage

摘要

Tablets of drugs on cards using the push-through system have a wider margin with punched holes along one side of the card so that they can be fastened in the staple or ring type of folder. The perforations can also be arranged on wider margins on more than one side. This allows several cards to be filed in a folder, one above another or one after another in an easily accessible arrangement. This minimises the risk of errors in the intake of drugs when patients are on a complex drug diet. It facilitates the correct regular use of drugs and indicates by the empty shells the rate of consumption. The package is handy for travel and for businessmen. Any necessary instructions can be filed together with the drug cards.
