Diabetes Education
If you have diabetes, you know how challenging it can be to manage your disease. At Halethorpe Pharmacy, our diabetes educators can help you live a healthier and fuller life. Our programs are fully accredited by the American Association of Diabetes Educators. We focus on seven self-care behaviors:
- Healthy eating
- Being active
- Monitoring
- Taking medication
- Problem solving
- Healthy coping
- Reducing risks
At Halethorpe Pharmacy, the goal of our diabetes education is to help people with diabetes practice these behaviors every day. Doing so leads to lower blood sugar (glucose), blood pressure and cholesterol. Most people with diabetes know self-management is important, but many find it overwhelming. Our diabetes education can help you by designing a specific plan that includes the tools and support to help make self-care behaviors easier to follow.
Breast Pumps & Accessories
Our lactation specialists provide support and guidance to mothers and babies. We offer one-on-one breastfeeding consultations to help you choose a breast pump that best meets your needs. We carry a variety of breast pumps, and replacement parts as needed.
In addition to pumps, we offer a wide variety of breastfeeding accessories, including nursing pads, milk storage bags and containers, and nursing bras. Our fitters will help you select a nursing bra or tank that provides you with the comfort and style you are looking for.
Give us a call to get started, or download our easy-fill prescription template HERE and have your doctor's office complete it.
FLAVORx: Custom-Flavored Medicine for Kids
There’s a better way to get kids to take medicine. FLAVORx is a specialized flavoring system that allows your child to choose how liquid medicine should taste. Talk to our pharmacy staff and find out how to make medicine time a breeze! All FLAVORx flavors are sugar-free, dye-free, gluten-free, and casein-free.
Dr. Comfort™ Therapeutic Shoes for Diabetes Patients
We understand how important proper foot care is to diabetes management, due to the increased risk of serious foot complications (such as ulcers and sores) that can occur from the use of ill-fitting shoes. These foot problems, which can cause infection and lead to possible amputation, are the most common complications of diabetes that require hospitalization. Professionally fitted shoes for persons with diabetes can reduce the risk of foot complications.
The trained staff at Halethorpe Pharmacy can perform in-store fittings for our patients with diabetes. By taking preventive measures, it is possible to avoid foot complications and to maintain an independent, active lifestyle. This is why Dr. Comfort therapeutic shoes and insoles are an excellent first step toward better foot health. Medicare A and B covers one pair of therapeutic shoes with three pairs of personally molded orthotic shoe inserts (to be charged throughout the year). If you have Medicare A and B primary and Medigap or supplemental Medicare insurance, you will likely have no out-of-pocket expense. We can take care of all the billing paperwork for you. Call us at (410) 247-3344 to learn more.
EZ-Pack Convenience Pill Packaging System
No more wondering whether you took your pills! Our EZ-Pack pill storage system organizes all your daily medications into an easy-to-use weekly or monthly package. It is sealed at the pharmacy to ensure that your medications do not spill out or get mixed up. Ask about it in the store, or give us a call!
