Medication therapy management
Medication therapy management, known as MTM, is a comprehensive review Tahoe Forest pharmacists do to help patients better manage their medications and health conditions. Pharmacists will collect specific information such as medical history, list of prescription medications, over-the-counter products, supplements, and herbal products for the purpose of identifying potential side effects or drug-drug interaction risks. To ensure the patients medications are working, pharmacists will create action plans and arrange follow up sessions to ensure patients are compliant and have the information they need to get the most out of their medication regiment.
This is exceptionally good for people who take several medications and/or have multiple chronic conditions such as diabetes, asthma, cholesterol, and high blood pressure.
Medication synchronization
Do you ever find it difficult to keep all your medication refills aligned and find yourself making multiple trips monthly, or even weekly, to the pharmacy to refill a medication just before you run out? If so, MedSync is for you. MedSync, is a program we offer that allows you to pick up all of your medications at the same time, on a day that works best for your schedule.
