Laetus Pharmacode barcodes for pharmaceutical packaging verification
Pharmacode (Pharmaceutical Binary Code) is a specialized packing-control standard used across the pharmaceutical industry to verify that the correct leaflet, label, and carton are matched on high-speed packaging lines. Unlike retail barcodes, Pharmacode encodes a single integer between 3 and 131070 in binary using narrow and wide bars.
Full 3 to 131,070 Range Validation
Automatically enforces the valid Laetus binary integer range (4 to 16 bars).

Frequently asked questions
Why does Pharmacode start at 3 instead of 1?
In the Laetus Pharmacode binary specification, every code must have at least two bars so the scanner can calibrate bar width, which corresponds to a minimum integer value of 3.
