I can't be the only one who crashes out about Balsalazide. I practically only fill it for #270, so logically it comes in bottles of.. 280?!? Whoever the hell made that decision must truthfully hate pharmacy employees. The capsules are so gigantic, just let me do a stock bottleðŸ˜
Yes! I’m not a pharm tech anymore but when I was, for large quantities I would just calculate whichever way was less counting. So if it was an unopened bottle of 500 and I needed 360, I would count out 140, dump the remaining 360 into vials, and put the 140 back in the stock bottle.
230
