# Pharmacy Bags & Medical Dispensing Bags

Dispensing bags for community pharmacies, hospital pharmacies, dispensing GP practices and clinical supply teams. Paper and polythene formats, plain or printed, in the sizes a busy dispensary works through every day.

Where medication must not be opened before it reaches the patient, tamper evident medical bags add a permanent VOID seal to the same dispensing workflow.

Sealing cartons or trolleys rather than bags? See our [security seals and tamper evident labels](/security-seals).

## Dispensing Bag Formats

### Paper dispensing bags

Traditional white and kraft pharmacy bags in small, medium and large sizes for over-the-counter and prescription dispensing.

### Polythene dispensing bags

Clear or opaque plastic dispensing bags with self-seal or grip-seal closures, suited to liquids and bulkier items.

### Tamper evident medical bags

Permanently sealed bags with a VOID closure for controlled drugs, clinical trial supplies and items that must not be opened before the patient receives them.

### Patient sample bags

Specimen and pathology bags with a separate document pouch, keeping the request form dry and readable alongside the sample.

## Tamper Evident Bags for Controlled Drugs & Specimens

Controlled drugs, clinical trial supplies and pathology specimens travel through several pairs of hands between the dispensary and the patient or laboratory. A tamper evident bag closes once, permanently, and shows a VOID pattern the moment anyone attempts to reopen it.

Serial numbering and writable panels allow each bag to be logged against a dispensing or sample record, using the same chain-of-custody principles as our [evidence bags](/evidence-bags) and [tamper evident security bags](/security-bags).
