How Eyecon | RxSafe is helping pharmacy owners cut costs and grow revenue
There’s been plenty of talk about rising costs and shrinking margins for independent pharmacies. One thing’s for sure: automation—done right—can tip the scales between just getting by and real growth.
Manual counting, card filling and vial filling take valuable time and add up fast in labor costs. Even your best techs are spending hours on tasks that automation can streamline, freeing them up for services that actually drive revenue—like MTM, immunizations, and patient outreach.
Pharmacies making the switch to compliance packaging with Eyecon and RapidPakRx are seeing immediate results. We recently looked at one Midwest pharmacy that switched from manual vial filling to strip packaging with RapidPakRx. They saved over 50 hours a month in tech time, which worked out to $1,200–$1,800 per month in labor cost savings. That’s real money. And they didn’t need a giant operation to make it worth it.
The RapidPakRx uses bulk-loaded, universal cartridges that don’t require calibration. You can load capsules, tablets—even half tabs—and it just works. No ribbons, no ink, and built-in verification. It simplifies the workflow and removes a lot of the daily friction. The Eyecon helps by keeping your counts and inventory accurate, all while saving time and money through efficiency.

Here’s why it matters right now:
The Big Beautiful Bill that recently passed means even bigger tax savings for your pharmacy. With enhanced Section 179 and 199 benefits*, capital equipment like RapidPakRx and Eyecon can potentially be written off—if purchased and installed before the end of the year. That’s real money back in your pocket, on top of the monthly operational savings.
Plus, with Eyecon and RxSafe products manufactured right here in Minnesota and California, you can avoid import delays and keep your project on schedule.
Bottom line: Compliance packaging isn’t just about efficiency—it’s a smart investment for long-term growth and a timely opportunity to maximize your tax benefits before year-end.
