TITAN’s Latest Update: Supporting Original Pack Dispensing Legislation

As the pharmacy industry prepares for significant regulatory changes, TITAN continues to lead the way with innovation and adaptability. With the Original Pack Dispensing (OPD) legislation coming into effect from 1st January 2025, TITAN is proud to announce full support for this game-changing update, ensuring pharmacies stay compliant while optimising their operations.

What is Original Pack Dispensing?

From January 2025, the new OPD legislation mandates that pharmacists must dispense medication in its original manufacturer's pack when clinically appropriate. This change aims to:

  • Reduce medicine waste

  • Minimise split packs

  • Enhance dispensing accuracy

This regulation simplifies processes for pharmacies and offers a better experience for patients, aligning with broader NHS goals of efficiency and safety.

TITAN’s Seamless Integration of OPD

TITAN has seamlessly incorporated OPD functionality into its platform, making the transition smooth and efficient for pharmacies. Here's how it works:

  1. Effortless Workflow
    Integrated directly into the labelling screen, OPD requires no additional training or steps. Simply scan the product, and TITAN automatically calculates the pack difference for the pharmacist.

  2. Automation at Its Best
    TITAN’s advanced logic ensures accuracy by identifying the most appropriate pack sizes, reducing manual interventions.

  3. Key Benefits

    • Reduction in Waste: Dispensing full packs eliminates unnecessary splitting.

    • Improved Accuracy: TITAN’s automation minimises errors during dispensing.

    • Operational Efficiency: Pharmacies save time while meeting regulatory compliance.

Future-Ready with TITAN

With the OPD update, TITAN once again proves its commitment to innovation and compliance. As the NHS-accredited platform leading pharmacy transformation, TITAN ensures pharmacists can focus on clinical care while leaving regulatory changes to the experts.

Stay ahead of the curve with TITAN — a partner you can trust to adapt to the evolving pharmacy landscape.
