In-Office Pharmacy Q & A
What are pharmacy services?
Pharmacy services play a vital role in managing both acute and chronic health conditions by ensuring access to essential medications. Pharmacies fulfill prescriptions and provide over-the-counter medications recommended by your physician. At Personal ConciergMed, our in-office dispensary offers a convenient source for both generic and select branded prescription medications.
Generic medications contain the same active ingredients as their branded counterparts but are available at a lower cost. Branded drugs, developed by pharmaceutical companies, are protected by patents during their initial release. Once patent protection expires, generic manufacturers can produce more affordable versions with FDA approval.
PCM’s pharmacy negotiates significant discounts with suppliers, allowing medications to be offered at cost with no markup. While the pharmacy carries a wide range of medications, it does not dispense benzodiazepines or extended-use opioids, due to their high risk of addiction.
