NeW SyrUp BottLE~

The normal bottle to fill in the medicine syrup ....

But.......there is a new syrup bottle to fill in the syrup!!!!!I found it while doing inspection in clinic.

DANG DANG DANG DANG !!!! There it is!!! They actually use the soft drink bottle to fill in the medicine syrup with a label which stated the name of the syrup but NO expire date of the DRUG. However, they do have the expire date of the SOFT DRINK on the bottom of the bottle. when i ask them why u want to put the syrup in soft drink bottle?? They say it was because the original bottle is too heavy and since they got so many empty bottle of syrup, So they decided to recycle it to fill in medicine syrup. I cant stop laughing when i saw the syrup bottle. But in order to maintain pharmacist's professionalism, i have to act professionally and laugh in the toilet.
Maybe this is one of the brilliant method to improve compliance of the children as the syrup will taste like soft drink. Since the colour of phenergan and coca cola are so similiar...What if they fill in coca cola instead of phenergan for the kid???FANTA instead of actifed??? salbutamol instead of seven up??
Maybe next time u will see some children request their parent to buy phenergan instead of coca cola....This will then increase the business of the pharmacy!!!Hurray~~
PS: PLS do not try this method in your pharmacy, hospital or clinic. I will not responsible for any breach of the law.
