Universal Envelope Concept Each patient gets the same sleeve, regardless of weight band Counselor/pharmacist should write number of pills/day patient should take on the envelope Every day, a patient will take prescribed number of pills and reveal 1, 2, or 3 hidden phone numbers Patient should call any one they reveal that day Patient should start at pill 1 and move in sequence (1,2,3…28), completing each column, and starting from the top at each row

Universal Envelope Dispensing Process Counselor writes prescription of pills/day Patient can call any number revealed that day Numbering sequence to assist with counseling, for example for 5 pills a day: first day, take #s 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 second day, #s 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 Call symbol indicates where to find the phone number, but should not confuse patients on dosing – always take the dose given by the counselor and call any one of the numbers revealed that day.

APPENDIX: Common questions/doubts that patient or counsellor may have about universal envelopes Q1. For which weight band are these envelopes for? Answer: The universal envelopes can be used or all weight bands (2, 3, 4, or 5). The number of pills to be taken daily has to be written manually by hand in the rectangular box . Q2. Why do we have call symbol/phone icon on few flaps and not all? Answer: The call symbol/phone icon indicates that the toll free number is inside that flap. Once patient takes out the pill from that flap, the toll free number will be seen. The patient should not confuse dosage and stop taking out pills after opening the flap with this symbol. They should always take the number of pills prescribed by the doctor and written in the rectangular box. Q3. Why are numbers written on flaps? Does it indicate days? Answer: The number sequence indicates the order in which the pills should be taken out. It does not indicate days. For example, for 5 pills dosage, the patient should take out pills 1,2,3,4, and 5 on day 1. Then on day 2 they should take pills 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Q4. What does the arrow indicate? Answer: The arrow indicates that pills should be taken in top to down order. Patient should start at pill 1 and move in sequence (1,2,3…28), completing each column, and starting from the top at each row.
