Health Resources

Our pharmacists have compiled these resources to help you stay informed, manage your medications safely, and live a healthier life. All materials are for educational purposes — always consult your healthcare provider for medical advice.

Medication Safety

Managing multiple medications can be complex. Here are key tips our pharmacists recommend:

• Keep a complete, up-to-date list of all your medications, including supplements and over-the-counter drugs.
• Never stop a prescription medication without consulting your doctor or pharmacist first.
• Store medications in a cool, dry place — not in the bathroom medicine cabinet, which is typically humid.
• Check expiration dates regularly and dispose of expired medications safely via our drug take-back program.
• Use a pill organizer or our blister packaging service to avoid missed or double doses.

Understanding Your Medications

Every prescription comes with a medication guide. Our pharmacists encourage you to read these and ask questions. Key things to understand about any new medication include: what it is for, how and when to take it, possible side effects, interactions with food or other drugs, and what to do if you miss a dose.

Health Screening Guide

Preventive screenings can detect health issues early. We recommend adults schedule these checks regularly:

• Blood Pressure — At least once every 1-2 years. Available free at our pharmacy.
• Blood Glucose — Annually if you have risk factors for diabetes. We offer walk-in testing.
• Cholesterol — Every 4-6 years for adults 20+, more often if you have heart disease risk factors.

Supplement Safety

Dietary supplements are not FDA-regulated in the same way as prescription drugs. Before starting any supplement, talk to our pharmacist to check for interactions with your current medications and to ensure the supplement is appropriate for your health situation.

Drug Take-Back Program

Unused or expired medications should never be flushed or thrown in the trash. Bring them to our pharmacy for safe disposal through our year-round drug take-back program, available at no cost.
