Myers Drug

The patient's health and comfort are our primary concern. We work closely with the prescriber to achieve that goal. If patient can't swallow a tablet - a liquid, suppository, transdermal gel, sublingual troche, or an injection may be appropriate. If the patient is allergic to a dye, a preservative, or filler of a commercial product, a similar medication can be formulated leaving out the problem-causing agent. If a medication is too sweet or too bitter, the flavor can be altered to suit. If a 20 mg dose is available but a 16 mg or 23 mg dose is required, that, too is easily achieved at our pharmacy. We are working diligently with individual physicians to control chronic pain, with hospice groups to alleviate all symptoms of the hospice patient, and with every medical specialty to meet their unique needs. If an animal has a medication problem, we can help with that as well. Myers Drug has been working with women and their physicians to compound natural hormones specific for each individual since 1997. It is an honor and a challenge as a pharmacist to be a resource that enables many women to successfully navigate this complex aspect of life. Many unique formulations and dosage forms can be compounded to meet the specific needs of each woman. Remember watching Mary Poppins pour out medicine in a strawberry, lime cordial, and rum punch flavors? The children were amazed and gladly took their dose with a smile. It's taken a number of years for pharmacies to catch on but now Myers Drug customers can choose to have their medication flavored in any one of over 100 flavors. For many customers this service has made a world of difference. Forget all the fighting, pleading, bribing, and playing games to get your children to take their medication. Now they ask for it. That's right! Now they remind you when it is time for their dose of medication. Customers can choose and taste test any flavor right in the pharmacy before taking the medicine home. For some medicines they also get a chart to check off each dose they take and if they complete the chart ( and their medicine ) they can bring it back in for a toy.
