Abstract:

In an illustrated embodiment, a backing sheet capable of storing information relative to pharmaceutical prescriptions has a first series of adhesively backed pharmaceutical prescription label segments removably secured thereto, each label segment having formatted zones thereon for facilitating entry of typed information and accommodating simultaneous transfer of typewriter impressions to the backing sheet. A second series of supplemental data segments on the backing sheet provide for recording of supplementary information with respect to each label segment contemporaneously with the typing of the label segment. After removal of a prescription label segment from the backing sheet, the backing sheet has stored thereon both the formatted information as entered on the label segment and necessary supplemental data so as to facilitate computerized pharmaceutical accounting.
