What a gratifying feeling to return from National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) and Parcel Health's Tully Tube Launch Party at Goodale Station on the rooftop of Canopy by Hilton in Columbus, OH, with so many new connections, wonderful memories and work to do.

We're thrilled with the reactions of longtime friends and partners and new ones, as we showcased the features and benefits of our innovative Tully Tube with a few demonstration stations, including a stress station, exemplifying Tully Tube's sturdiness and a heat station showcasing how Tully Tube keeps its internal temperature stable in heated environments, as much as 20°F cooler. The response was nothing short of remarkable.

Feel like buying our beautiful Winter Pine or Parcel Health Signature Blue and Green Tully Tubes? You can purchase by the case right now: https://www.parcelhealth.co/shop or contact us for greater volume pricing.

Our Tully Tube made a big impression, garnering attention and praise from industry professionals and fellow attendees. We had the pleasure of reconnecting with longtime friends in the pharmacy world and forging valuable new connections. Together we're making progress toward our mid-year 2025 goal to displace 1 million plastic pill bottles from landfills.

Announcing our Launch Party Raffle Winner: Congratulations to Amanda Applegate from Kansas Pharmacists Association, who won a pair of Apple AirPods in our exciting raffle draw.

The overwhelming positive response to Parcel Health's Tully Tube at our launch party and with members of the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) reinforces our mission to revolutionize pharmaceutical packaging with sustainable solutions. We're more motivated than ever to continue our work in reducing plastic waste and improving patient experiences.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us at our launch party, engaged in discussions at NCPA, and showed support for our vision. Your enthusiasm fuels our innovation!

Thank you for sharing our opinion piece 680 The Fan and for helping to get the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to reconsider their decision on the Eli Lilly and Company drug Zepbound™ (tirzepatide) shortage!

Parcel Health aims to continue to provide sustainable paper pill bottles to divert plastic from the waste stream and help to provide affordable and safe delivery of treatments for obesity.

10/10/2024

The FDA recently announced the end of the shortage for Eli Lilly and Company's anti-obesity medication, Zepbound™ (tirzepatide) HCP. This may seem like good news but it’s important to ask: the shortage has been resolved for whom, exactly?https://www.parcelhealth.co/

This blog post, written by our Cofounder and Melinda Lee Su-En PharmD, explores the complexity of this situation. While current Zepbound™ (tirzepatide) supplies are sufficient to meet insurance-covered market demand, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration fails to acknowledge the other type of shortage: one created by price and insurance inaccessibility. This inaccessibility has the same impact as a supply shortage: patients who need medications are unable to receive it. Our friends at WIRED have joined this important conversation as well: https://lnkd.in/e9yj9UYt

At Parcel Health, we make the first automation-ready, paper-based pill bottle that displaces plastic bottles from entering the waste stream, with safer packaging, especially for compounding pharmacies.

Made with fully recyclable and compostable core materials, Parcel Health has set a new standard for pharmaceutical packaging and proudly supports its compounding pharmacy partners.

Composting is an activity that continues to elude most of us. How do you do it? Does it make a difference? Should my company encourage composting? Will my family benefit from it?

In this post https://www.parcelhealth.co/news/w620r8vhjrj182yb1wn13icmirf6t9, drawing guidance and insights from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Medium, and Good Start Packaging, we discuss how composting can contribute more than recycling to the health of our local communities, neighborhoods and even our households.

At Parcel Health, we believe that every small action counts. That's why we develop packaging solutions made with compostable materials. By making the switch to our Ultra Sustainable Tully Tube and encourage composting it after use, your company and its stakeholders can join in a larger movement towards sustainable healthcare practices.

We believe that this simple act of composting a medication package can become part of a collective, powerful action. Even better, the more we participate, the greater our collective action can not only make a statement, but will make a lasting impact for us and for future generations.

Join us. Together, we can fill medicine cabinets with safe parcels, not plastics.
