CD Book
The digital Controlled Drugs register
Every receipt, dose, and disposal recorded, witnessed, and accounted for - without a paper book in sight. CD Book is our new digital solution designed to make controlled drug management secure, compliant, and straightforward. CD Book replaces traditional paper registers with a secure and intuitive digital platform.
Why Make the Switch to Digital CD Accounting?
Paper CD registers are still how most clinical teams manage controlled drugs - trusted in principle, but slow to keep, easy to mis-transcribe, and painful to reconstruct under audit. CD Book replaces the paper register with a digital system that follows existing staff workflows: books, pages, and a running balance - while closing the compliance gaps paper simply can't. Nothing is ever quietly corrected, no entry is left half-signed, and no controlled drug moves on the say-so of one person alone.
Key Features & Operational Workflows
Works Like Your Current Register: Designed around a "book" per store or location, a "page" per drug preparation, and a running balance on every entry. Intuitive with minimal learning curve.
Mandatory Two-Person Signatures: Every stock movement and stock check requires two people to confirm it. The second person proves who they are with their personal PIN—never a shared login or rubber-stamp click.
Zero Single-Person Actions: Structurally impossible for one person to receive, administer, or dispose of a controlled drug alone.
Tamper-Free Corrections: Mistakes are corrected, never rewritten. Voiding an entry requires a mandatory reason, automatically raising a linked correction entry while leaving the original permanent and visible for auditors.
No Signature Left Behind: Tracks every entry waiting on a second signature and keeps it visible to staff and managers until resolved, catching compliance gaps the same day.
Risk-Free Training Mode: Features a fully isolated, watermarked Training Mode running on the exact live interface with its own balances, so new starters build confidence with zero risk to real stock.
Field-Ready Security: Automatically logs out after 10 minutes of inactivity, ensuring an unattended tablet on scene is never an open controlled drugs register.
Automated Reports: Export drug administration, per-user, and audit reports to PDF the moment they are needed.
Designed for Regulatory Compliance
Legally Compliant: Fully satisfies Regulation 20 of the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 (SI 2001/3998, as amended by SI 2005/2864).
Attributable & Auditable: Two-person PIN signing satisfies legal attributability, while the no-delete correction model maintains complete auditability.
Home Office Proven: Already validated in practice, passing a Home Office audit of controlled drugs record-keeping with zero issues raised.
Dedicated Instance: Every organisation runs on its own separate, dedicated instance rather than a shared database sitting behind application-level rules.
Purpose-built Architecture: Built specifically for controlled drug accounting from the ground up - not a spreadsheet with permissions bolted on or a generic e-signature tool.
