3. Additional Notes
a.
Ampoules, syringes and vials may have Counting Units expressed as the number of ampoules, syringes and vials
where no pack volume is available.
b.
The NFCs DGJ (e.g. Amoxil syrup, Ampicillin syrup etc.) and MGJ (e.g. Topicycline) are supplied as dry powders
which have to be made up with water before use. Therefore, the final volume is expressed as total ml in the
container.
c.
For those Standard Units equal to 'No. of 1g doses' this is equivalent to "Total g/weight."
