Product order dosing filler systems and related methods

An order dosing filler system comprising:

• an order processing device configured to receive pharmaceutical orders including orders for drugs used in multi-drug regimens, wherein each of the multi-drug regimens has a plurality of scheduled dosing events;
• a container transport system;
• a container transfer device configured to transfer containers to the container transport system, and the container transport system is configured to transport the containers to a dosing device, a container sealing device, a container identifier assembly, and an inspection assembly, wherein:
• the dosing device is configured to communicate with the order processing device and configured to dispense drugs for scheduled dosing times into the containers based on the received pharmaceutical orders, wherein each of the containers corresponds to a respective one of the plurality of scheduled dosing events, and the container transport system is configured to transport the containers with the dispensed drugs to the container sealing device;
• the container sealing device is configured to seal to the plurality of the containers with the dispensed drugs, wherein each container retains one or more drugs for one of the multi-drug regimens providing a dosage unit container corresponding to one of the plurality of scheduled dosing events for one of the multi-drug regimens;
• the container identifier assembly is configured to identify the dosage unit containers based on the received pharmaceutical order;
• and
• the inspection assembly is configured to inspect each of the dosage unit containers;
• wherein the container sealing device includes:
• a first content securing device operably connected to the order processing device to apply a first content securing apparatus to the container containing the items from the dosing device with the first content securing apparatus is selected, wherein the first content securing device is configured to sense a first application force to the content securing apparatus when applying the first content securing apparatus to the container to verify application of the first application force;
• and
• a second content securing device operably connected to the order processing device to apply a second content securing apparatus to the container containing the items from the dosing device when the second content securing apparatus is selected alternatively from the first content securing device based on instruction from the order processing device, wherein the second content securing device is configured to sense a second application force to the second content securing apparatus when applying the second content securing apparatus to the container to verify application of the second application force;
• and
• wherein the inspection assembly includes a first container sorting device configured to rotate each of the plurality of the containers containing one of the first selection of the products and the second selection of the products before sealing the respective container;
• and divert at least one of the plurality of the containers to a separate staging area;
• and wherein a second container sorting device is configured to rotate and divert at least one of the plurality of the sealed containers to the staging area;
• and a second imaging device is configured to image each of the plurality of the containers to determine if the container is sealed and to verify a machine-readable identifier associated with each of the plurality of the containers, wherein the second imaging device includes at least one of a scanner and a machine-readable identifier reader.
