PharmacyPRO’s Post

This is important. I promise. Imagine this: You’ve decided to treat yourself to some anti ageing or fat dissolving treatments, because, why not? You deserve it! You find someone who’s offering a good deal (we all love a bargain), but here’s the catch—how do you know they’re qualified? In our industry, it's a bit like the wild west. More like a dodgy car boot sale where anyone with a syringe thinks they can have a go. Seriously, the lack of regulation is enough to give anyone a few extra worry lines (which, ironically, is what we’re trying to fix in the first place). There needs to be fair and equal regulation for all practitioners, whether they've spent years buried in textbooks with no practical skills or just picked up a needle after a weekend course. Now, I don’t want to come off as a moaning Myrtle, but this is crucial. Your lovely faces deserve the best, and that means being treated by someone who knows what they’re doing, someone who’s trained, qualified, and has your safety as their top priority. For me, it's not just about making you look fabulous (though that’s a nice perk), it’s about ensuring you’re safe every step of the way. Running my business, patient safety is always the priority. Every treatment I offer is done with the utmost care. So here’s my plea: Next time you’re considering a treatment, please check the credentials of your practitioner. Ask about their training, their experience, and don’t be afraid to dig a little deeper. It’s not about being picky; it’s about being smart. Your face is not the place to cut corners. And to my fellow practitioners, if we all demand higher standards and push for proper regulation, we can elevate our industry to where it deserves to be. No more back-alley treatments. It’s time we all played by the same rules to ensure the safety and satisfaction of our clients. If you’ve got any questions, concerns about your next treatment, you know where to find me.

Last week, I had a patient who said to me, “I am just afraid I’ll be on these medications forever.” This isn’t the first time I’ve heard this sentiment from patients considering medical weight loss intervention. Many people on Ozempic, Wegovy, or other GLP-1 medications fear that they will be on them forever OR gain all the weight back when they get off them. And the truth is - if you aren’t working with a SPECIALIST who understands these medications, and how to help you make the necessary lifestyle changes, you MIGHT have to stay on them forever. However, in my practice we have patients on these medications for an averge of 4-6 months, before we start weening them off. You DON’T have to be on them forever, but in order to TRULY change your body and your life, you need to work with someone who understands the entirety of what’s required. Your general practitioner is not going to be that person (in most cases).  Online vendors selling these medications on TikTok ads won’t manage your entire journey. Find someone who specializes in medical weight loss, interview them, and then work with them to develop a plan that makes sense for you and your goals. If you are in Colorado or Texas, I am happy to chat! These medications are great tools, but only in the context of the way you choose to integrate them into a greater plan. #weightloss #medicalprovider #medicationmanagement

Have you heard about MyCabinet, Inc? I recently connected with their CEO and founder Delia Passi, and am thrilled to have discovered her creation. Clients often ask me about medication contraindications, or feel their caregivers haven't adequately reviewed their supplements against their prescriptions. We also know that medical error is the 3rd leading cause of death in the US (CNBC, others). While I'm not posting this info to fear-monger (and I do not prescribe myself), it's a stark reminder that our health is truly in our control -- and that as patients, it is imperative that we take responsibility for its management, taking advantage of the tools and resources at our disposal. MyCabinet is one such resource, and one I plan to offer to clients moving forward. Always worth checking what you're using to fuel your body...and making sure you're taking the next best step forward! Awareness is all, and knowledge is power. (And did I mention it's FREE?!)

Another one I’ll never forget… Patient 4 brought a challenge that demanded serious “Medscheck Magic”. With a med list more complicated than decoding a cryptic crossword puzzle – 20 meds, some expired, others untouched – it was time to roll up my sleeves. I dove in, spending a solid five hours untangling the medication mess. And here's the kicker – I even teamed up with another pharmacist, not even from the same company. Talk about irony, right? Together, we streamlined things, transitioned to blister packs, and saved the patient from drowning in unused meds (and saved her cat from potential hazards!) What's more, the patient's situation highlighted the perilous position patients without a family doctor face. A clinic had put her on 💲 insulin💲 and 💲sensors💲, yet she had no intention of taking insulin, just didn’t know to ask for help, leading to more medication wastage. After a marathon shift, I personally assembled the first blister pack, ensuring she started her treatment journey on the right foot. Because in the world of pharmacy, every detail matters. Looking back, Patient 4's case proves the power of proactive care and unexpected teamwork. It's moments like these that fuel my passion for pharmacy, knowing that every action I take can profoundly impact someone's health and well-being. Here's to better adherence and smoother medication management! #PharmacyHeroes #Teamwork #patientcare Jeff Leger Lori LeBlanc Akeel Jaffer Anthony Spina Dave Puri Craig Nisbet Nitu Singh
