Members use the “Yellow Hand”

For 10 years we have been calling on all pharmaceutical companies to use the “Yellow Hand” as a label when shipping cancer drugs, in order to encourage the proper handling of these drugs during transport and delivery.

In order to set a good example of safe supply, many pharmacies use the “Yellow Hand” to label transport containers in which the individually prepared drug solutions or syringes are brought internally to the place of administration.
