Expiration tracking
Surface expired and near-expired medication before the audit, return window, or shelf check forces the issue.
Physical shelf inventory
The medication inventory layer your pharmacy system doesn't have.
Your pharmacy management system tracks what you dispense. RxRescue covers what's on the shelf — scan every bottle from a phone or barcode scanner, surface expiration dates and FDA recalls daily, and produce the audit trail an inspector actually asks for. Runs alongside what you already have.
$99/month per pharmacy after the trial. Cancel anytime. Or email us about a managed pilot for multi-site rollouts.

What RxRescue does
Inventory control for the shelf work spreadsheets keep failing.
RxRescue gives pharmacy and med-room teams a focused way to scan medication stock, see first-expired-first-out priority, pull short-dated inventory, print labels, and keep a defensible activity trail. Every one of these runs where your team can see it — on the dashboard, every shift — not in a background process nobody checks.
Daily FDA recall checks
RxRescue checks your on-hand inventory against the FDA recall feed every day and flags matches automatically — with a logged, timestamped history you can show an auditor.
One-tap DSCSA audit pack
When an inspector asks, export the six DSCSA-relevant reports — inventory snapshot, audit log, transaction records, recall match history, return manifest, quarantine log — in a single timestamped bundle. Not a week of compiling. One tap. Your audit log is retained seven years — a full year beyond the DSCSA requirement.
DSCSA barcode scanning
Capture GS1 bottle data including GTIN, lot, serial, and expiration from supported 2D barcodes.
Audit-ready history
Keep track of scans, edits, pulls, reverts, imports, exports, and inventory changes without a spreadsheet trail.
Small-team rollout
Designed for correctional med rooms, county jails, and institutional pharmacy teams that need proof before a large IT project.
Where RxRescue fits
It doesn't replace what you have. It covers what they miss.
Most pharmacies already run several systems. RxRescue isn't a replacement for any of them — it's the layer they leave uncovered.
Your pharmacy management system
Handles dispensing, billing, and the prescription record. Tracks a theoretical count. Typically doesn't store expiration dates or check recalls against your physical stock.
Your wholesaler's portal
Holds the transaction records that arrive from your wholesaler, for the retention window. Passive — it stores paperwork; it doesn't tell you what's on your shelf.
A DSCSA compliance service (some pharmacies use one)
A third-party service that manages DSCSA paperwork in the background. Hands-off by design — which also means it's working out of sight.
RxRescue The visible, physical, daily layer
The app your staff carries on the floor. Scan and count physical inventory, track expiration dates, catch FDA recalls against on-hand stock, and produce the audit pack in one tap. The part of compliance you can see working every shift.
RxRescue runs alongside all of the above. It covers the physical shelf — the part the other systems were never built to see.
Best fit
Built for accountable medication rooms that are too important for spreadsheets.

How to start
Two ways in.
Single independent pharmacy? Start the self-serve trial — install in five minutes, decide in 30 days. Multi-site rollout, jail network, or correctional healthcare contractor? Ask about a managed pilot with hands-on setup.

Questions buyers ask
Practical answers before procurement gets involved.
Does RxRescue replace the EHR or pharmacy management system?
No. RxRescue is a focused medication inventory layer for stock, expirations, scans, pulls, labels, and audit history.
Does RxRescue store patient information?
No. The product is designed not to collect PHI, and the app blocks patient-shaped import fields by design.
Do you sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA)?
No. A BAA exists to govern PHI between a covered entity and a vendor that handles PHI on its behalf. RxRescue never receives PHI by design, so there is no PHI for a BAA to govern. Most pharmacies clear RxRescue through a short security-review path rather than the longer BAA-required vendor track. See the security & compliance posture for the architectural detail.
Can it support correctional med-room workflows?
Yes. The product is shaped around restricted environments, shared workstations, scanner workflows, inconsistent connectivity, and high-accountability inventory.
Is this fully self-serve?
Single independent pharmacies can self-serve the trial in five minutes. Multi-site rollouts, jail networks, and correctional healthcare contractors should ask about a managed pilot — we recommend that path because scanner inventory, network behavior, and staff workflow benefit from hands-on validation before broad deployment.
How much does RxRescue cost?
$99 per month per pharmacy site, with a 30-day free trial. Cancel anytime. Multi-site managed pilots are available for healthcare contractors and jail networks.
Is RxRescue DSCSA compliant?
RxRescue captures and stores all four DSCSA-required fields from serialized 2D barcodes: GTIN, lot number, serial number, and expiration date. The GS1 parser preserves FNC1 group separators and is fixture-tested against real DSCSA scan patterns.
My pharmacy already uses Liberty (or Rx30, ComputerRx). What does RxRescue add that it doesn't?
Liberty and similar systems handle dispensing and billing. They typically don't store expiration dates at the bottle level, don't run daily FDA recall checks against your live inventory, and don't produce the six-file DSCSA audit pack in one tap. RxRescue runs alongside your existing system as a physical inventory and compliance layer — not a replacement. See the full explainer →
