Combination medications usually consist of 2 or more medications in the same box or medication entry. E.g. Rosuzet Composite Pack 10mg/10mg (Rosuvastatin 10mg tablet x 30 tablets and Ezetrol 10mg x 30 tablets). It is recommended to enter each individual medication separately to the patient’s profile according to how each medication is being packed.
If there is only one of the combination medication saved either in myPak drug database or dispense system, an additional entry for the subsequent medication is required.
