how do pharmacies work? Do they just have every kind of medication at all time? How is a prescription ready within an hour?
In: 31
As a general rule most pharmacies have ninety percent of their patients medications in stock. The medications vary widely by store and is commonly based on the products local prescribers use. Cost also plays a large part in stocked items. The greater the cost the less likely it will be on the shelf. Most independent pharmacies get next day deliveries, so not having an item isn’t usually an issue. More critical expensive meds we put on a calendar (electronic) and we will order a day or two before the patient needs a refill. We also encourage patients to order their very expensive products a few days before they run out.
