Claim Text:
1. A method of managing and tracking pharmaceutical products through a chain of custody performed by a computing device, the method comprising: automatically creating a transnomic code in response to an electronic request by a contracting user to a management server, wherein the transnomic code comprises a static tracking code and a plurality of information sets, each information set comprising a read header and extensible content; assigning the transnomic code to a pharmaceutical product, wherein the contracting user accesses the management server through a pharmaceutical interface via an Internet connection; automatically storing the transnomic code in a database of the management server, wherein the plurality of information sets of the transnomic code are appended longitudinally through time and comprise a variety of information records associated with the pharmaceutical product, wherein the read header provides a specification to read and interpret the extensible content corresponding to that read header, allowing the appending of information sets corresponding to different data standards and formats from different systems and different times; prescribing the pharmaceutical product to a patient by a prescriber and automatically electronically updating the transnomic code assigned to the pharmaceutical product with a read header and extensible content comprising patient and prescription information, including a chosen pharmacy, wherein the prescriber accesses the management server through a prescriber interface via an Internet connection and the transnomic code is paired with the electronic prescription for transmission; splitting the paired data into two transmissions at the management server and submitting the electronic prescription to an electronic prescription (eRx) switch for ultimate delivery to the chosen pharmacy; authenticating that the prescribed pharmaceutical is not similar to a medication recently prescribed to the patent or is not likely to cause adverse reaction with other medications, wherein the transnomic code provides information regarding the prescribed pharmaceutical for determining drug interactions; automatically electronically sending the prescription from the management server to the chosen pharmacy via the eRx switch, wherein the pharmacy is an entity separate from the prescriber; dispensing the pharmaceutical product to the patient by the pharmacy; and automatically electronically updating the transnomic code with a read header and extensible content comprising prescription tracking information by the pharmacy, wherein the pharmacy accesses the management server through the pharmacy module via an Internet connection.
