What Are Dual Language Prescription Labels?
Do you, a friend or a family member rely on someone else to translate prescription medication labels? Not understanding the labels can lead to illness, hospitalization or even death. Dual Language Prescription Labels can provide peace of mind and help increase medication safety for individuals who speak English as a Second Language. 25 Languages Are Available!
Throughout the world, almost 800 million individuals are non-native English speakers. This figure does not even touch on those who do not speak English at all. Dual Language Labels are available through ScriptAbility, a suite of accessible prescription labels provided at no additional charge by the pharmacist.
Dual Language Prescription Labels feature a high-contrast font in English, as well as a translation of one of 25 languages. These are ideal for patients who speak English as a Second Language. It is a booklet-style label that is attached securely to the prescription container.
