PHARMACY ONESOURCE LAUNCHES “DRUG INFO ONESOURCE”

Pharmacy OneSource Announces Electronic Drug Information Reference Application With Concurrent User-Based Pricing For Healthcare Organizations in North America

Dec 6, 2004 - Pharmacy OneSource, Inc. announced at the 39th Annual American Society of Healthcare Pharmacists Midyear that pharmacists who want easy access to high-quality drug information at a fraction of the cost typically charged finally have a new option to choose from in the drug information industry: Pharmacy OneSource’s “Drug Info OneSource”. At last, a drug information reference is priced the way it’s used—by the number of concurrent users, not by bed size or census.

“We’re thrilled to add an easy-to-use, quick to pertinent information, drug information reference application to our growing number of offerings to make pharmacy better by design. Drug Info OneSource wonderfully complements our leading formulary management and communications application, Formulary OneSource,” said Keith Streckenbach, President of Pharmacy OneSource, Inc.

Drug Info OneSource is an Internet-accessible drug information reference application that clearly presents unbiased and authoritative drug information for health professionals. Drug Info OneSource covers over 5,900 drugs and herbals. There are instructions on administration and dosing, adverse reactions and over 76,000 referenced drug-allergy, drug-drug, drug-food and drug-herbal interactions, as well as frequently updated warnings. It is especially apt at quickly identifying interactions within drug profiles containing multiple drugs, plus offering monitoring and management strategies.

Users can view actual images of drugs to aid in identifying patient’s “brown bag” meds upon admission to a healthcare facility, helping to prevent medication errors. Over 5,000 patient leaflets are available in English and Spanish.

As an introductory special, Drug Info OneSource is available at a 25% discount! And as a bonus, all purchasers of Formulary OneSource receive Drug Info OneSource free!

Free 45-day trials of Drug Info OneSource are available today. Over 8,000 pharmacists are using Drug Info OneSource. For more information, or to order, visit the website at http://www.pharmacyonesource.com/di4.
