Benzer Pharmacy opens fourth new store in 2016

PINELLAS PARK, Fla. — Benzer Pharmacy opened a new store here Tuesday, the chain’s fourth new store since the year began. The new location will offer specialty medications for such complex chronic conditions as HIV and rheumatoid arthritis. 

 

“We are one of the fastest growing private companies in America,” Benzer pharmacist Kevin Shukla said at the new location. “Following this rapid growth, the pharmacy is ensuring that we reach more customers and guarantee that their experiences match their expectations.”

 

Shukla also touted the role medication synchronization, which Benzer says has gained traction in the community, can play in adherence. 

 

“Medication synchronization also known as med sync, allows patients to pick up all their ongoing prescription refills at the pharmacy on a single, convenient day each month and work closely with the pharmacist on sticking to their medication regime,” he said. “In addition, the once a month appointment day facilitates increased pharmacist-patient dialogue and allows time for additional patient care services.”
