If you’ve ever had to wrestle with a crying child to get them to take their medicine, only to have them kick, scream, fight, and eventually spit it out anyway, or even if you were once that child yourself, then you know all too well the stress many parents face when their kids are sick. For over 25 years, FLAVORx has been committed to making medicine-time a better experience for kids and parents by letting children choose the taste of their liquid medicine and improving the drugs palatability. Our customers include some of the largest retailers in the U.S., including CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart. In fact, we provide over 45,000 pharmacies across the country with the tools they need to make medicine-time a better experience for the whole family.

We also build and install pharmacy automation equipment that adds water and flavor to a medicine in mere seconds. Most people don’t even realize that pharmacists have to reconstitute antibiotics with purified water before they can be dispensed to patients. This process can be time consuming and error-prone. Our Fillmaster line of dispensers dispenses water automatically, in precise amounts, to improve pharmacy workflow and accuracy. The new FLAVORx Auto even dispenses the customers preferred flavor, completely eliminating the time it takes to flavor medications.

To ensure our pharmacy customers can fill prescriptions with safe, high-quality purified water, we pair our dispensers with a proprietary water purification system designed to meet pharmaceutical specifications. FillPure, our water quality division, includes a growing team of field technicians who are responsible for servicing and maintaining the water purification systems and Fillmaster dispensers. Demand for our equipment is growing rapidly, so we’re expanding our team across many departments to better serve our pharmacy customers.
