Medication is packed as a weekly supply, either in a Webster-pak blister system or dosette box.
You can leave all your various boxes and bottles with us, as well as your prescriptions. We store them all safely for you, help remind you when you need to see the doctor for more prescriptions, and have the blister/box ready for you to pick up and go. If you ever move or decide you'd like to go back to looking after your own medications, you can do so - there's no contracts or lock-ins.
