Health informatics — Requirements for international machine-readable coding of medicinal product package identifiers

Informatique de santé — Exigences pour une identification internationale, lisible par capture automatique, des produits médicinaux

Abstract / scope

ISO/TS 16791:2014 provides guidance on identification and labelling of medicinal products from the point of manufacture of packaged medicinal product to the point of dispensing the product.

ISO/TS 16791:2014 outlines best practice for AIDC barcoding solutions for applications. Users can, however, consider the coding interoperability requirements for other AIDC technologies e.g. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID).
