                   MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS, SUBSIDIARIES
                   ----------------------------------------

                            EMERGE FROM CHAPTER 11
                            ----------------------


     Clearwater, FL--September 9, 1996 - Medical Technology Systems, Inc. 
today announced that Plans of Reorganization were confirmed on September 4, 
1996 for its major operating subsidiaries that had filed Chapter 11 cases 
earlier this year in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Middle District of Florida, 
Tampa Division. The Plans were approved without objection and by an 
overwhelming vote of secured and unsecured creditors.

     An integral part of the successful reorganization was the restructuring 
of the Company's loan agreement with SouthTrust Bank of Alabama, N.A. The 
Company's $28 million credit facility with SouthTrust has been restructured 
to provide for, among other things, a $15 million performing loan with terms 
that facilitate growth in the operations of the Company's core businesses. 
The SouthTrust debt will be fully satisfied upon payment of the principal 
balance of $15 million.

     Todd Siegel, President and C.E.O. stated, "We are very pleased with the 
results of our efforts. A complicated restructuring has been completed in 
eight months. Many companies languish for years in bankruptcy proceedings. In 
fact, most companies are unable to reorganize. Our success is a tribute to 
the working relationship we have established with SouthTrust and could not 
have been accomplished without the cooperation of our employees, customers 
and suppliers. The Company is now in a position to resume the growth and 
profitability it has traditionally enjoyed."

     Medical Technology Systems, Inc. manufactures and markets proprietary 
drug dispensing and information systems for nursing home and hospital 
pharmacies interested in a more economical and efficient way to package, 
dispense, administer and monitor patient medication.
