We conducted an observational, retrospective national registry study to determine the rate of dispensing of periconceptional folic acid after prescription in a sample of French women representative of the general population. Our study population (n = 186,061) was a representative sample of the French population, recorded in the Health Data System database on pharmacy dispensing of medication and mandatory reporting of pregnancy. Between 2006 and 2016, 14.3% of pregnant women had a prescription for fol

Abstract:

Fuel station operations often face challenges related to inaccurate fuel dispensing and inefficient payment processes, leading to customer dissatisfaction and operational inefficiencies. Manual intervention in fuel measurement can result in discrepancies, while traditional payment methods may cause delays. This paper presents a user- friendly, mobile-integrated petrol bunk system that enhances accuracy and efficiency through automation. The proposed system enables users to register via a mobile application, authenticate using OTP, and select the desired fuel quantity. A QR code-based dispensin

Background: Background: An investigational pharmacy is responsible for all tasks related to receiving, storing, and dispensing of any investigational drugs. Traditional methods of inventory and protocol tracking on paper binders are very tedious and could be error-prone. Objective: To evaluate the utilization of the IDS to efficiently manage the inventory within an investigational Pharmacy. We hypothesize that the IDS will reduce the drug processing time. Methods: Our pharmacy tracked the drug processing time before and after using the IDS including the receiving, dispensing, and inventory. As
