Services
Compounding Pharmacy
Our on-site compounding lab creates personalized medications tailored to specific patient needs. We prepare customized formulations from scratch using individual ingredients, allowing precise dosage adjustments and alternative delivery methods. This service benefits patients requiring unique medication strengths, allergen-free formulations, or specialized treatment combinations that aren't commercially available.
Home Health Care
We provide ADP-approved mobility aids and home safety products to support independent living. Our selection includes walkers, bathroom safety equipment, and post-surgery recovery products. Certified specialists help customers navigate the Assistive Devices Program funding process and select appropriate equipment for their specific needs and living environments.
Diabetes Consultations
Our certified diabetes educator offers OHIP-covered one-on-one appointments for prediabetes and diabetes management. Services include medication reviews, blood sugar management strategies, and lifestyle counseling. We provide specialized diabetic supplies and support clinics to help patients maintain optimal health through personalized care plans and regular monitoring.
Medication Flavoring
We offer FlavorRx to improve medication palatability for children. This service adds various flavors to liquid medications without affecting their efficacy. Our pharmacists work with parents and pediatric patients to select preferred flavors that make medication administration easier and more acceptable for young children.
Weekly Compliance Packaging
Our weekly compliance packaging service organizes medications into easy-to-use blister packs. This system helps patients manage complex medication regimens by clearly separating daily doses. The packaging reduces medication errors and improves adherence through visual confirmation of completed doses, particularly beneficial for elderly patients or those with multiple prescriptions.
