Short stability compounded parenteral medications

The BUD date on short stability medications is hand written on the med label at the time of preparation. We often get reports that administration was started after the BUD time, so I'm wondering if anyone has incorporated the BUD on the MAR that alerts the nurse that the medication is expired?
