IF.
>> Melanie: WE'VE BEEN TALKING
A LOT THIS WEEK ABOUT
PRESCRIPTION PAINKILLERS FOR
TIGER WOODS ARREST FOR DRIVING
UNDER THE INFLUENCE.
WHILE HE WAS NOT DRUNK HE DID
SAY HE HAD AN UNEXPECTED
REACTION TO PAINKILLERS.
WHAT ARE THINGS YOU COULD TAKE
INSTEAD OF MAYBE AN OPIOID.
JOINING ME NOW REGISTERED
PHARMACIST, FROM WISE
PRESCRIPTION STOP, YOU'RE
CELEBRATING FIFTH ANNIVERSARY.
WAS THIS YOURTAD'S BUSINESS.
>>> IN 1967 MY MOTHER AND FATHER
BOTH TOGETHER AS PHARMACISTS
OPENED UP WISE PRESCRIPTION
>> Melanie.
I LOVE THAT.
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE WHOLE IDEA
OF COMPOUNDING.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT YOU SAID
A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T
NECESSARILY KNOW ABOUT.
A LOT OF PHARAMACIES CAN'T DO IT
BECAUSE THEY DO OSUCH HIGH
VOLUME WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF
HAVING SOMEONE TAILOR YOUR
MEDMEDS 16 TO YOU.
TREAT PAIN.
BE IT IS A ONE OR 5 OR 10 IN
SOME CASE, WE CAN USE A
NON-NARCOTIC COMBINATION OR
INDIVIDUAL INGREDIENT AND
COMPOUND SOMETHING THAT MIGHT BE
TRANSDETERMINALLY WHICH MEANS
ACROSS THE SKIN FOR A JOINT OR
HIP OR BACK DIFFERENT OPTIONS
FOR PAIN.
>> Melanie: YOU'RE SAYING
OPIOIDS WE TALKED ABOUT THE
EFFECTS AND PEOPLE DON'T ALWAYS
KNOW WHAT IS IN THE PILL THEY'RE
TAKING.
YOU CAN DO SOMETHING THAT IS
MAYBE A CREAM WITH NO SIDE
EFFECTS BUT TAKES AWAY THE PAIN
BECAUSE IT IS DIRECTLY TO IT.
>>> FOR EXAMPLE, JOINT PAIN,
BACK PAIN, HIP PAIN OR MUSCLES
OR ANKLE SPRAIN, SOMETHING THAT
MANY DOCTOR MACE FEEL LIKE THEY
NEED TO PRESCRIBE AN OPIOID FOR,
NOT ALWAYS THE CASE.
WE CAN GO WITH A TRANSDETERMINAL
OR ACROSS THE SKIN CREAM AND
NICE NATURAL EFFECT.
>>> YOU WORKED DIRECTLY WITH THE
DOCTOR TO COME WITH THE
COMBINATION.
WE KNOW THESE THE ONE WES GET
OVER THE COUNTER.
>> THESE EVERYONE RECOGNIZES
ADVIL AND ALEVE, THOSE KINDS OF
THINGS, BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF
OTHER OPTION OUT THERE.
A LOT OF OTHER OPTIONS.
I JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU WHAT
YOU MIGHT FIND AT LOCAL PHARMACY
OR NATURAL FOOD SHOP WHICH WE
OWN AND OPERATE.
WE HAVE MESHAL AGENTS, WE'VE G
SEARGENTING -- ABOUTS THAT ARE
ENZYME RELATED, HOMEOPATHIC.
SOME ARE SINGLE INGREDIENTS,
SOME ARE MULTIPLE INGREDIENT
WITHIN THE PRODUCT THEMSELVES.
>> Melanie: DO PEOPLE FIND
THEY WOR THEMSELVES.
LIKE AN ADVIL, MAYBE SOMETHING
THING?
>>> IT CAN BE VERY COMPARABLE TO
DELETE S MAYBE NOT TO A OPIOID.
>> BUT YOU MAY NOT NEED IT.
AND THE KEY HERE WE WERE TALKING
ABOUT COST.
THE BENEFITS FOR YOUR BODY WILL
OUTWEIGH THAT.
>>> FOR THE MOST PART IF
SOMETHING THAT IS AVAILABLE FROM
A MANUFACTURE COMPOUNDING
PHARAMACIES CAN USUALLY PREPARE
EXPENSIVE.
STILL COVERED BY INSURANCE, BUT
LESS EXPENSIVE.
>> Melanie: AND YOU REALLY
DEVELOP A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR
>> WE DO.
>> Melanie: WE KNOW, THAT
DIDN'T WORK, LET'S TRY SOMETHING
DIFFERENT.
>> THAT IS WHAT HOPEFULLY 1E9S
US APART FROM OTHER BUSINESS IS
WE TRY TO GET TO KNOW THE
PATIENT.
IF IT IS AN EAR ACHE PAIN VERSUS
A UTI SPAIN OR SPRAIN OF THE AGE
THAL IS WHY WITH HAVE SO MANY
ONSES.
>>> ALSO SALES SAVES YOUR
PHARMACIST IS THE FIST LINE OF
DEFENSE.
EXECUTIVE PRODUCER THOUGHT IT
WAS INTERESTING, WHEN YOU HAVE
PAIN, DON'T JUST TAKE TWO ADVIL
OR TWO TYLENOL BUT TAKE A
COMBINATION.
>>> WORKS BETTER THAN ONE SINGLE
PRODUCT AS TYLENOL OR ADVIL.
AND TWO OF THE SAME.
>>> THANK YOU, APPRECIATE IT AND
THANK YOU FOR THE WORK YOU DO.
THESE ARE REALLY, REALLY GOOD
OPTIONS FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T
NECESSARILY WANT TO TAKE THIS
OVER-THE-COUNTER STUFF.
