We are the first pharmacy in the area to offer pharmacist administered intramuscular injections of antipsychotic medications. We schedule the customer an appointment date, in which they can sit down one-on-one with an experienced pharmacist who counsels, monitors for adverse side effects, and administers the antipsychotic medication. We then report back to the psychiatrist by fax, and/or phone of the patient’s well-being and mental health.
- Pharmacist-administered antipsychotic injections and doctor call backs for missed appointments. Examples of medications include Risperdal(R) Consta(R), haloperidol, fluphenazine, Vivitrol (R), and Invega (R) Sustenna (R).
- One-on-one counseling for patients receiving intramuscular injections
- Pharmacist monitoring for adverse side effects during appointment
- We routinely monitor (weight, body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure, and blood glucose)
