"Together with our other applications, Accupedia, Amplifi, DIOne, Quantifi, Simplifi 797 and UnitStock, this new product solidifies Pharmacy OneSource's commitment to high performance pharmacy standardized."
Pharmacy OneSource will be responsible for the further development of ScheduleRx and its marketing, sales and full-service support.

"This business arrangement promises to work well for both companies and more importantly, our customers."
