Finding it difficult to remember when and how much of your medication to take? You're not alone; half of all patients report having difficulty with taking medications properly. One solution is custom blister packs, or "compliance packaging." The custom packaging makes it easy for you to take the right medication at the prescribed time.
If you take two or more medications or supplements, it's a good idea to speak with a pharmacist at Parkwood Pharmacy. Our Oshawa pharmacists will check your medication for free. This ensures your medications do not counteract, interact, or contain ingredients to which you may be allergic. Having a complete list and understanding of the drugs you take can also be helpful if you are entering the hospital or leaving the hospital after a surgery.
