What Is a Specialty Pharmacy?
Specialty pharmacies work specifically with specialty medicines. Specialty medicines are generally high-cost and not available at retail pharmacies. They often need special handling with specific delivery and storage requirements.
We will develop a care plan with you to manage and avoid side effects. This care plan will support the care plan that you receive from your provider.
