Subject: ocular lubricant name changes

 

 

In an effort to minimize confusion with our ophthalmic lubricant products, the generic nomenclature has been updated in all systems (Cerner, Pyxis, Carousel) to match each other.

 

 

"ocular lubricant" will be the generic name for these products: REFRESH CLASSIC, REFRESH PLUS, ARTIFICIAL TEARS. Pay close attention to the BRAND names to help distinguish between them.
