The KL1Plus combines the simplicity of a Kirby Lester tablet counter with computerized scan-verification to safeguard against prescription filling errors, and inventory software to eliminate manual logs for controlled substances. Suitable for any volume or size community or outpatient pharmacy, the KL1Plus ensures prescriptions (tablets, capsules and unit-of-use items) are verified before counting, and every Rx dispense is archived for up to 10 years. And, if your pharmacy uses a fully automated pharmacy robot, a KL1Plus is the perfect partner to handle everything else for 100% medication verification and narcotics management peace of mind.

Perpetual Narcotics Inventory Management

The KL1Plus helps your pharmacy maintain absolute inventory accuracy, especially for controlled medications (manual counting is only 95% accurate at best, with no record of what was filled). This “Directed Dispensing” system ensures all pharmacy staff members who process prescriptions are following best practices.

Kirby Lester KL1Plus is Designed For:

Prescription counting
Narcotics inventory counting and recording
Perpetual inventory software
Automated packaging device: cassette/cell inventory
Returns and expired medication inventory tracking
