Prescriptions

Our pharmacy team is ready to prepare your prescriptions. We ask you questions to ensure that the prescriptions are right for you, the right drug and dosage and for the right purpose. We will tell you what you need to know, why and how you need to take the medication, what to expect from the medication, and offer other pearls of knowledge that is related to your medication.
Managing medications can be difficult, especially if there is more than one to take. Ask us for information about free blister packing or prescription reminders. It is all a part of our service to you.

Before the large-scale manufacturing of medications in the 1950s, every pharmacy would be prepare all the medications by compounding the active ingredients into the dosage form needed, whether it being capsules, suppositories or creams. Now in the 21st century, commercially made medications are the norm and compounding medications is a skill and art within the pharmacy community.
Compounded medications are individualized and personalized, just like you. Neither the medication itself nor its dose is limited to what the manufacturers produce. Also, we can customize medications if there are allergies or dietary preferences.
Customizable dosage forms:
- Creams, ointments and gels to be used on the skin
- Capsules or dissolving tablets
- Suspensions
- Troches/lozenges, gummies or lollipops
- Suppositories
We take the time to provide a quality product and to provide thorough information. Do not hesitate to contact us for more information and to have your compounded medication prepared for you!
