# Medication Queue

The **Medication Queue** screen displays a list of patient records for whom clinicians have issued prescriptions. Once medications are added in the **Medication** tab of a patient's **Medical Records** and the entry is saved, the patient record is automatically listed in the **Medication Queue**. This functionality helps pharmacy staff and authorized personnel easily identify and process active prescriptions associated with the current visit.

The **More Actions** menu includes a **Print Prescription** option, which allows users to preview, download, print, or email the prescription.

Each row displays details such as **Patient PIN, Patient Name, Gender and Date of Birth, Appointment Time, Check-in Date and Time, Doctor or Technician Name, Procedures, ePrescription Number, Controlled Medication ePrescription Number, Remarks,** and **More Actions.**
