  Why is it important to stay with one pharmacy?

• Answer:

  It is a good idea to have all your prescriptions filled at one pharmacy. You may not know this, but your pharmacist keeps a complete patient medication profile on you at the pharmacy where you have your prescriptions filled. These profiles record all medications you are taking (or have taken), health problems, and allergies that you have told your pharmacist about. It is also a good idea to tell your pharmacist about all over-the-counter medications that you take so they can be included in your medication profile.

  By going to one pharmacy, your pharmacist will be able to continuously update your patient profile – making sure all the information is accurate. This will also help avoid problems that sometimes occur when medications are mixed. And remember – your patient profile is confidential information.
