Regimens
Regimens are a schedule of drug batches, comprising the drug, dose, date of administration and frequency. By booking in a regimen you can have PTS automatically book in further prescriptions for each of the constituent drugs in the regimen, based on the schedule that you define on the regimen setup page.
On this page we will discuss the Regimens setup page but more information on the use of regimens can be found in the aseptics user guide.
Accessing the setup page
Like many of the different PTS utilities, setup is found in the left-hand side bar.
Hover over the sidebar with the mouse cursor and the side bar will expand. Select Setup to reveal a drop-down list of the various setup pages you have permission to access.
To choose a setup page click on its name in the list to be taken to the setup page.
PTS 5 is the most user configurable version of our Prescription Tracking System to date.
