Specialty disease therapy management
Disease management can be stressful, overwhelming, and frustrating but with us by your side it doesn’t have to be
We manage your prescriptions and treatment options to make sure you live an active and healthy lifestyle. With our Patient Management Program we review things such as your medication, dosages, frequency, interactions, side effects, physical assessments and coordination of care with your physician when appropriate. There are many potential health benefits of this program, including the managing of your side effects, improved overall health, increased disease and medication education and awareness, increased medication compliance and when coordination of care with your physician is necessary, your pharmacist will have all the information needed to help make informed decisions regarding what is best for you as the patient.
We offer disease therapy management to the following disease states:Patient welcome kit
