TROCHE POPS® PODS: Detachable Unit-Dose Packaging for the Bedside

The Challenge

Hospitals need unit-dose that works at the point of care

Med-pass teams need doses that are individually packaged, easy to hand to a patient, and separable without scissors or extra handling. Pharmacies preparing troches, lozenges, chews, and custom tablets need packaging built for those dosage forms, not adapted from something else.

Easy to administer

Each pod presents a single dose ready to hand to the patient.

Individually detachable

Pods separate from the strip one at a time, so only the dose due leaves the package.

Tamper-evident

Every pod can be sealed with standard tamper seals.

How PODS Work

Strips of 10. One pod, one dose.

TROCHE POPS® PODS are 1 mL pods that come in connected strips of 10. Pharmacy fills and seals each pod, and at the bedside any single pod snaps away from the strip, leaving the remaining doses sealed and intact.

Strips fit into pharmacy pouches with a dedicated Rx label area, keeping a patient's supply organized from the pharmacy to the unit.

What Fits Inside

Dosage forms are virtually unlimited

If it is a solid oral dose, it can likely go in a pod, including:

TabletsTrochesCustom rapid-dissolve tabletsLozengesChewsMedicated candyAnd more

Pharmacies compounding directly for TROCHE POPS® can pair pods with the TROCHE POPS® compounding fixture and TW compounding molds.

Tamper-Evident Sealing

Seal every pod

Each 1 mL pod can be tamper sealed with standard tamper-evident seals such as the HCL® Tamper-Evident Foil Seals, 1¾" from Health Care Logistics (item 19871; 1¾" W x ¾" H, 1,000 per roll). Per HCL, the flexible foil seals mold easily to containers and cannot be reapplied once removed.

TICKERWORKS tamper seals are coming soon.
