Printing Tips
Be sure to print pages 3 and 4. Print settings Top to Top and Double Sided works best. Print setting Fit to page. Some print alignment drifting from border margins may occur. This means that double sided with some printers may be off slightly. There is a horizontal space for each page of the drug card. This is where you can fold the card. Printing anomalies have been reported where one or two pediatric drug dose boxes have disappeared despite it appearing on the PDF screen version. Please check your printed version to ensure no drug dose boxes went missing.
