Hope Springs Pharmacy

Medications are an important component of almost every pain treatment plan, and having chronic pain often means taking multiple medications. Particularly if you have a complex chronic disease or multiple health problems, these medications may be prescribed by different providers.  Keeping up with all of your medications – dosages, timing, side effects – can be challenging at best. But it is possible, and the Hope Springs Pharmacy can help.
 
Begin by creating a list of all of the medications you take, including their names – both brand and generic – dosages and any other instructions for taking them. Each time you receive a new prescription add it to the list, and each time you visit your health provider take along a copy.  Because medications can interact with one another and two different providers could inadvertently prescribe the same medication or something similar, it is important for each of your providers to know exactly what you are taking.
 
Here in the pharmacy you will learn where to find reliable information on the medications you take as well as important advice and practical tips for remembering your medications and more.  So take a stroll through the pharmacy and check out our selection of articles and resources to help make you make the most of your medication -- safely.
