March is Pharmacist Appreciation Month! Pharmacists can provide you with more than prescriptions. Here are some highlights and featured services that are available from our LMC Certified Diabetes Educator Pharmacists – and these are covered by OHIP, so there is no charge or requirement to change pharmacies:
-
Comprehensive medication assessments, including the Diabetes Canada recommended assessment to make sure you have medications to protect your heart
-
Drug interaction assessments to check for conflicts and prevent side effects from combinations of prescription, non-prescription, over-the-counter, vitamins and minerals, natural health products and recreational drugs
-
Injection technique assessments and training – using an injection medication shouldn’t hurt. If it does, please let us help you figure out the cause and solution
-
Ontario Ministry of Health Quit Smoking Program to help you prepare to quit and provide medications to curb cravings and manage withdrawal
