Tobacco Cessation Consultation

We know how tough it can be to quit smoking. So, your Medicine Shoppe pharmacists are here to help. We offer support and expertise in several ways:

  • Counseling and Support – We’re here to provide personalized counseling to help you set realistic goals, identify triggers, and develop strategies for managing cravings.

  • Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) – Our pharmacists can recommend over-the-counter NRT options, such as patches, gum, and lozenges, and teach you how to use them properly. We’ll help you find a method that’s best for you.

  • Prescription Medications – If you need additional support, our pharmacists can advise you on prescription medicines.

  • Follow-Up and Monitoring – Medicine Shoppe pharmacists recognize there may be setbacks in your tobacco cessation journey. We’ll help you navigate those setbacks, adjust your NRT as needed, and address any side effects.

Compounding Services

Our Medicine Shoppe pharmacists recognize that no two patients are alike – even if they have similar health conditions. We help patients with unique needs who aren’t helped by mass-produced medicines. This may include:

  • Creating medication in a form that easier to ingest (e.g., liquid vs. tablet).
  • Removing a non-active ingredient in medication due to allergies.
  • Providing an exact dose that isn’t otherwise available.
  • Offering a specific flavour of texture that helps the patient ingest the medicine.

Immunization Administration

At our Medicine Shoppes in Belvedere, Pembina, and McQueen we recognize how important it is for patients to receive preventive care through vaccinations. Our pharmacists can administer most injections, including:

  • Travel vaccinations
  • COVID vaccinations
  • Flu vaccinations
  • Shingles vaccinations
  • Pneumonia vaccinations
  • RSV vaccinations.
