Easy Open Caps
Arthritis and other joint conditions can make gripping
child-proof medication caps difficult and even painful. With Walgreens easy-to-open caps, just
unscrew the cap to open the bottle.
Choose your cap preference from the prescription
settings page.
Large Print Labels
Do you find it difficult to
read prescription instructions? Update your prescription
settings to include a large-print copy of your information (including medication name,
directions, warnings and prescription number) for your prescription. Magnified text -- in
either English or Spanish -- is just one of the many ways Walgreens is at work for you -- and

Select Walgreens pharmacies can now work with your physician to customize your medication's dosage strength and form to fit your specific needs. It's a service called "medication compounding." Pharmacists may compound prescription medications to:
- Create patient-specific dosages to accommodate an in-between dose or to match a particular patient's weight and size
- Combine certain medications into a single dose
- Change the dosage form to one that's easier to take-creating a liquid suspension for a child who has trouble swallowing capsules or tablets, for example
- Develop allergy-free formulations, changing or removing inactive ingredients such as preservatives, dyes or lactose
| Using their expertise, along with cutting-edge technology
and standardized recipes, our pharmacists can prepare almost any prescription. Dosage forms can be compounded for pain management, hormone therapy, veterinary use and more. |
