Labelling Standard labels
The National Standard for User-applied Labelling of Injectable Medicines, Fluids and Lines (the Labelling Standard) assists health professionals to safely identify the contents of containers and lines used for, and with, injectable medicines and fluids. The labels approved for uses described in the Labelling Standard are provided in print ready form below.
Use of labels
The labels listed on this page are for:
- User-applied labelling of injectables medicine containers
- Conduits where the contents can no longer be identified by the original packaging.
Full descriptions of what should be labelled, label inclusions and label placement are available in the Labelling Standard.
Labelling resources
All labels are available in PDF (for viewing) and EPS (for professional printing).
