The samples of secondary packaging items (cartons, labels and package inserts) of 45 essential drug products used at Union health and family welfare center and Thana health complex level, that included 23 solid (tablet and capsule), 34 liquid (syrup, suspension, and injectables) and 4 semisolid (ointment and cream) preparations either manufactured in Bangladesh or imported by local distributing agencies, were thoroughly examined from April 30, 2005 to March 31, 2006 on the basis of 32 parameters which are usually regarded important for the labeling of any pharmaceutical preparation including essential drug products. Many of the products were available simultaneously as solid, liquid and topical (total 74 different) dosage forms and all dosage forms have been considered in this study. The secondary packaging items of a total of 58 pharmaceutical companies for 45 generics of essential drug products have been collected, sorted/arranged and meticulously studied, and packaging parameters were accumulated for analysis. It has been observed that many of the important packaging information were either completely missing or not properly described. This study was aimed at examining the extent of the packaging information provided in the secondary packaging items.
对联合健康与家庭福利中心以及塔纳健康综合设施层面使用的45种基本药物产品的二级包装物品（纸箱、标签和包装说明书）样本进行了全面检查。这些产品包括23种固体剂型（片剂和胶囊）、34种液体制剂（糖浆、混悬剂和注射剂）以及4种半固体制剂（软膏和乳膏），均由孟加拉国生产或由当地分销机构进口。检查时间为2005年4月30日至2006年3月31日，依据32项通常被认为对包括基本药物产品在内的任何药物制剂标签很重要的参数进行。许多产品同时有固体、液体和局部用（共74种不同）剂型，本研究涵盖了所有剂型。总共收集了58家制药公司生产的45种基本药物仿制药的二级包装物品，进行了分类/整理并细致研究，积累了包装参数以供分析。结果发现，许多重要的包装信息要么完全缺失要么描述不当。本研究旨在检查二级包装物品中提供的包装信息的完整程度。
