Pax Pharmacy pharmacists want to do more than fill up your prescriptions. They want to be there for you when you need us most, and sometimes, that’s during a medical emergency. Our team’s expertise can make us your go-to emergency pharmacy in Duarte. Pax Pharmacy pharmacists offer a wide range of services so you feel like you’re in good hands.

Our pharmacists in Duarte pride themselves on being able to treat you during a medical emergency. In addition to being there for you, our pharmacists can help improve other Duarte healthcare facilities and professionals.

During a medical emergency, it’s possible for details to slip through the cracks. This is a mistake an emergency pharmacist can help prevent. An emergency pharmacist makes sure you receive the correct medicine, including the correct amount. The emergency pharmacist treating you will work with your other healthcare professionals to determine what and how much medicine you need. Your condition, medical history and other factors will help your emergency pharmacist make a decision.

Making sure you’re taking the right medicine continues after you receive your prescription. That’s why your emergency pharmacist will continue to:

• Monitor any allergic reactions
• Keep in mind the goals of your treatment
• Check on your progress

These are three different responsibilities, but they’re all intended to ensure your safety.

Doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals can treat you better with an emergency pharmacist helping them. An emergency pharmacist can help them use the available pharmacy medication information. Pax Pharmacy’s emergency pharmacists can access this information quickly, which helps your healthcare team treat you faster.

As time goes on, certain medical practices evolve, but that doesn’t mean all healthcare professionals are aware of these changes. Our emergency pharmacists educate themselves on medical trends so they can help provide you better treatment and inform their colleagues on them. This is one of the ways our emergency pharmacists can improve healthcare in Duarte.

Emergency pharmacy services are great to have when it comes to resuscitation because they can help:

• Administer a prescription immediately
• Come up with creative ways to administer a prescription
• Address questions about a prescription on the spot
• Cure a patient with a toxicologic emergency

Having an emergency pharmacist around when resuscitation is happening can make all the difference.

Emergency pharmacy services can help restore your health, but they can also be a great resource for all of Duarte. By offering this essential expertise, Pax Pharmacy can help you and other patients enjoy a better healthcare system.
