Broulim’s pharmacies now offering clinical services in east Idaho

Broulim’s pharmacies are now offering clinical services in east Idaho.

Broulim’s pharmacists took part in a pilot program and went through extensive training so they can now screen patients and write certain prescriptions without a doctor’s appointment.

Pharmacists can prescribe medications approved by the FDA for the following conditions: uncomplicated urinary tract infections, strep throat, cold sores, motion sickness prevention, smoking cessation, immunizations, flu, lice, inhalation spacers, nebulizers, statins for patents who have been diagnosed with diabetes, diabetic blood sugar testing supplies, pen needles, syringes, and more.

This is meant to improve access to healthcare.

Broulim’s has pharmacy locations in Ammon, Driggs, Montpelier, Rexburg, Rigby, Shelley and Soda Springs.
