MULTIPLE MEDICATION PACKAGING

“Did I take my medications today…or was that yesterday?”

—Sound Familiar?

HOW DOES THE PROGRAM WORK?

  • When you enroll in this innovative service, our pharmacist places the pill you need for each dose into individual packets.

  • Your medications are organized in a blister pack with morning, noon, evening, and bedtime dosages. Our pharmacists carefully select dosage times to avoid drug interactions and preventable side effects.

  • Each blister pack lists each of your medications, separated by dosage time, description of pill, prescribing doctor, and why you are taking it. Our labels make it easy to identify when to take your pills because each cell has the date and time. The label is also color coded to make it easier to visually identify the time of day

  • Any over-the-counter items, like aspirin or vitamins, may be placed in your blister pack with your other medications.

  • Blister packs are prepared for 30 days at a time, which means only one trip to the pharmacy per month!

  • Blister packs are tamper proof so you know if you’ve taken today’s dose or not!

  • Our pharmacists will manage all of your refills automatically so you don’t have to - no more calling the doctor and waiting for refills.

FAQ

  • What if my doctor changes my medications but I’m not due for a new blister pack yet? Bring in your blister pack and we will make the appropriate adjustments.

  • What if I have multiple doctors - how will they know if I have a medication change? We’re on it! Our pharmacists will keep your doctors up-to-date on all of your medication changes.

  • What if I can’t make it to the pharmacy to pick up my new blister pack? No problem! For a small fee, we can deliver in the greater Oakland/Mtn. Lake Park area.

  • What if I can’t remember to take my medications in my blister pack? Electronic medication boxes with alarms are available for purchase instead of blister packs.
