Good morning all,

The ketamine syringe labels will start to look different starting todayJuly 25th. The new labels include 2-D barcodes (example included). These barcodes are not for general pharmacy use and should not be used for scanning. Please continue to scan the regular ketamine syringe barcodes.

You will continue to see the regular ketamine labels and these new ketamine labels as we are still in the process of shifting our production to the new robots. We expect that the labels will change design again in the near future, and I will continue to keep you updated with any pertinent changes.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.
