Customized Blister Packs:
If you or someone you care about is taking many medications, it can get complicated. Forgetting to take a dose, or even have trouble remembering if you took it that day are common, but potentially dangerous occurrences.
At The Village Pharmacy, we're making it easy to take your medications with a blister pack made just for you - giving you the right dose at the right time for the best possible health outcome.
Blister packs help simplify how you take your medications - simply pop open the blister for the specified day & time, and all the medications you need are at your fingertips. No more struggling with bottle caps and trying to read tiny prescription labels.
It's easy to get started. Just bring in your prescriptions and our Pharmacist will be happy to help.

Specialty Compounding:
Sometimes your doctor cannot find a commercially available pharmaceutical product that meets your healthcare needs. In this case, you may need to bring your prescription to a compounding pharmacy like The Village Pharmacy.
The Apothecary:
Before modern pharmaceuticals were available, physicians would hand their patients a prescription detailing the quantities of each ingredient in a formulation to treat a medical condition. This could be in pill, tincture, cream or suspension form. A skilled apothecary would determine how to properly combine these ingredients in a palatable and beneficial form. Even today, sometimes your doctor needs to customize your medicine.
Personal Service/Expert Advice:
Your Village Pharmacist is a skilled apothecary. If your doctor prescribes a medication which needs compounding, visit us or give us a call. We'll provide an excellent, tolerable formulation at a fair price. Common examples of compounded products we make include estrogen creams, progesterone creams, testosterone ointments, hair loss lotions and many more!
Reasons for using specialty compounding:
- The product does not exist commercially
- A patient is allergic to the existing commercial formula
- Customization of dose for drugs with a narrow therapeutic index
