David Pharmacy, Inc. would like to introduce two new services we offer to our community.  These services will be provided in a private area by a pharmacist whose time is devoted to the patient during this service.

"BROWN BAG" CONSULTATION

By appointment only, we offer an in-depth counseling -- a special time set aside for a "Brown-Bag" session.  

This Medication Review  is a face-to-face consultation conducted between the patient or caregiver and the pharmacist.  This interaction allows the pharmacist the ability to observe signs of the patient's health problems, such as adverse reactions to medications.  The pharmacist's observations can result in early detection of medication related problems and thus can reduce emergency room visits, hospitalizations, unscheduled physician visits, and overall drug costs.  

For this meeting, you will bring a bag filled with all of the medicines you are taking, including prescription and nonprescription drugs, herbs and/or other alternative remedies, vitamins, minerals, and any other supplements.  Make sure you bring with you all of your medication containers and all of the dosage forms (pills, creams, ointments, eyedrops, sprays, skin patches, etc.) of the drugs and supplements that you use.

During the session, you will meet with one of our pharmacists  (Pam or David) to make sure you are only taking what you need and are doing so properly.

This service is provided for a fee of $38.00

Some Medicare Part D insurance plans will cover the cost of this consultation depending on the annual cost and number of drugs you are taking. 

If you would like to schedule an appointment or get more information, please contact us at service@davidsmedicalsupply.com or (740)687-0195.
