Automated Pharmaceutical Waste Management

BD (Formerly CareFusion Corporation)

The Pyxis EcoStation system from CareFusion is an automated pharmaceutical waste management system with proprietary scanning to help hospitals manage pharmaceutical waste. The system helps identify, classify, sort, and segregate pharmaceutical waste, and provides waste records to facilitate tracking and regulatory controls of more than 180,000 NDCs. The EcoStation assists hospitals in managing the entire life cycle of a medication-from the point of entry into the hospital to the point of disposal-while improving cost controls, increasing control of waste tracking, and responsibly caring for the environment.
