With chain pharmacies on almost every corner, it can be easy to overlook your local independent pharmacy. Just don’t be so quick to do so! There are many reasons to use and love the independent pharmacy in your area. Reliability: The May 2016 Consumer Reports Pharmacy Buying Guide found that independent pharmacies exhibit the following strengths: faster service, fewer errors, more helpful and courteous, and more likely to have your medications ready when promised. Friendlines...s: Your local independent pharmacy knows you’re more than a prescription number. They know you by name, and you know them. How many other healthcare providers are that personable? Patient-Centered Service: Local independent pharmacies have shorter wait times and a team dedicated to make sure you get the right medication and fully understand how to use it every single time. Community: The pharmacy, pharmacists, and team are your neighbors. They share the same values and understand the vibrant culture unique to your community. Enhanced Pharmacy Experience Local independent pharmacies have services that chains simply do not. Your local pharmacy likely offers free home delivery, prescription compounding, medical equipment, preventive care like immunizations, medication therapy management, medication synchronization and most importantly, personalized care for you and your loved ones. Patient Education Local independent pharmacies often offer ongoing training and education for your specific needs. Your local pharmacy likely offers classes on how to use your medication, manage your diseases, and how to properly use your medical equipment. Relationships: Local Independent pharmacies maintain a personal relationship with you, so your health and wellbeing will always be their highest priority. They also have those same relationships with local physicians, community leaders, and local service providers. Think Local: Each dollar you spend in a local independent pharmacy strengthens your community. Shopping at independent businesses returns 3 times more money to the local economy than a dollar spent at a chain. Remember, even the smallest difference can make the biggest impact in your pharmacy experience. Take the first step to improve your health and stop by your local independent pharmacy to spot these differences. See more

We compound Anti-Aging Prescriptions Aging of the skin combined with symptoms of hormone decline can lead to feeling aged before being old. Premature aging of the skin can result from years of exposure to UV rays, smoking, and bad skincare habits. With age comes diminished levels of collagen in the skin, which can cause wrinkles and volume loss. Production of hormones also slows with age, which can lead to uncomfortable symptoms. There are multiple e...ffective options for treating the signs and symptoms of aging that are available from a compounding pharmacy. Premature aging of the skin is mostly caused by unprotected sun exposure and habits like smoking. Even with proper skin protection and a good skincare routine however, there will still be volume loss and wrinkles associated with aging. Age spots (also called sun spots) are areas of hyper-pigmented skin that form from sun exposure. These discolorations in the skin from sun damage can often be reduced with the use of a cream containing hydroquinone. Hydroquinone evens out skin tone by changing the pigment of the skin. While hydroquinone cream is available commercially, it is not available in strengths 6% or higher except through a compounding pharmacy. Additionally, a compounding pharmacy can combine hydroquinone with other effective lightening ingredients like kojic acid and anti-aging ingredients like tretinoin. Tretinoin (retinoic acid) is a derivative of vitamin A that speeds up the skin’s renewal process. A tretinoin cream replaces rough, sun-damaged skin with newer skin cells. The cream can be applied daily to help reduce years of accumulated sun damage. When beginning tretinoin, some irritation and scaling may occur. This will usually go away with continued use as the skin adjusts. Examples of Formulations: 1) Peel and Bleach Cream: Hydroquinone 8%, Tretinoin 0.1%, Hydrocortisone 0.5% 2) Hydroquinone 6%, 8%, 10% Creams 3) Tretinoin 0.025%, 0.05%, 0.1% Creams Serums, gels, and creams with hyaluronic acid are also effective at reducing the signs of aging. Hyaluronic acid is a humectant that is naturally produced in the skin and helps it retain water. With age comes a diminished production of hyaluronic acid, which leads to dull, dry skin. By using a daily moisturizer along with hyaluronic acid, the skin’s ability to retain moisture can be restored. Our peptide serum Encore Jeune also contains hyaluronic acid 1% along with other effective ingredients like Vitamin C, DMAE and Argireline. It is available for purchase at the pharmacy counter.
