FAQ:
How can a clinical pharmacist help me in my care?
Clinical pharmacists work directly with you to provide evidence-based, up to date information on the appropriate, safe and cost-effective use of your medications. We work closely with other healthcare providers to make sure that your care is not fragmented, and all your health-care providers are on the same page as regards your care. We are also easily accessible via in-person visits or Telehealth, without having to wait a long time for an appointment.
When should I reach out to a clinical pharmacist?
Clinical Pharmacy Services should be used when you have questions about your medications, when you experience side effects of medications, when you need help simplifying your medication regimen, when you need assistance with managing chronic diseases and for behavioral health services (including Major Depressive Disorder, Anxiety Disorders, Substance Use Disorders). We are also here if you need assistance with choosing cost-effective medications, without compromising your care.
