We had a lot of problems with this with our compounded IV's. If the additive was loaded in Pyxis, it would not print on the refill list, but it would charge the patient as if it did. I finally had to make duplicate drug dictionary entries - one that is an additive that is not loaded in Pyxis and the other that is not an additive and is loaded in Pyxis. You may need to do this with any of your "loaded" compound components. Kathy Kathy Craig, R.Ph.

If one of the ingredients is in the Pyxis medstation, it automatically defaults to dispense from Pyxis. If the pharmacist does not notice this and change the dispense location to the main pharmacy, Pyxis allows the nurses to pull some of the medications separately. Has anyone found a fix for this?
