Counselling
When you get a prescription filled with us, especially with new medications, we go over:
- what it is and what it's used for
- the dose and what is deemed appropriate
- the accurate directions
- for children
- when in the day you should take it, with or without food
- demonstrate how to use any devices, any specific techniques to make your medication work better
- potential side effects, and how to address them
- when you should start to feel the effects of the medication
- non-drug options to go along with your medication
- when to see your doctor
- follow up with a pharmacist if needed
We take the time to make sure you understand your medications, answer any questions and empower you in making health-related decisions.
