“Bedside Meds” ServiceBefore patients return home from a hospital stay at Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin, experienced pharmacists fill their prescriptions and discuss their medications right at the bedside.
Bedside Meds is an additional check that helps ensure patients understand all of their medications and know which medications they should take at home. Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin pharmacists also help simplify patients’ medication regimens. They carefully review each patient’s complete prescription list; if they notice any unnecessary or duplicate medications, they’ll talk to the patient’s physician to see if those medications can be eliminated.
Our Bedside Meds program is an award-winning service that is unlike any other in Wisconsin and one of only a handful in the United States.
Medication ManagementIt’s not easy to manage the complex medication regimens that are often part of cancer, diabetes, transplant or HIV care. That’s why our pharmacists offer a Medication Management Program for patients with complicated treatment plans. Enrollment is free!
Anticoagulation and Medication Therapy ClinicSome blood-thinning medications, such as warfarin (Coumadin®), require careful monitoring. Doses are adjusted based on patient response to the medication, so it’s important that dose-response monitoring and adjustment be done by experts. Our pharmacists are an integral part of the Anticoagulation & Medication Therapy Clinic at Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin. They can answer questions about your anticoagulant medication and help you learn how to live on anticoagulant therapy.
Specialty ClinicsOur pharmacists are involved in several specialty clinics on campus, including GI/Hepatology, Endocrine/Metabolic Syndrome, Internal Medicine, Rheumatology, Infectious Disease, Clinical Cancer Center Clinics, Pulmonary/Smoking Cessation, Cardiology and Transplant. These pharmacists work directly with your physicians and clinic staff to make sure you understand and get the most benefit from your medications.
Drug Repository and Medication DisposalPatients with unused medications that meet certain requirements may donate these medications to our Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin pharmacies. You can also bring your expired and unwanted medications to any Froedtert Hospital Pharmacy, and we will safely dispose of them for you.
