Our pharmacy strives to meet the needs of your family and can proudly compound your medications. We offer non-sterile compounding done in our lab and hood. Many medications come in a tablet form, which is not suitable for all patients. Our pharmacist can take the active ingredients and create a prescription best suited for each patient. Compounding medications is also great for kids and pets!

At Amherst Pharmacy, we are committed to providing you with medications that meet your unique health needs. Sometimes, patients require medications to be blended in a specific way. To prevent an allergic reaction by removing a non-essential ingredient such as dyes, sugar, lactose, or alcohol.
We proudly offer our compounding services for all surrounding communities including Sunderland, Leverett, Shutesbury, Pelham, Belchertown, Granby, Greenfield, Hadley, Hatfield, North Hampton and Ware.

As a long-term care pharmacy (LTCP), we provide medications and consultant pharmacy services to long-term care facilities such as nursing homes. As a LTCP, we provide continuous access to a pharmacist as well as offer emergency delivery of medication. Our main focus is to ensure that patients have access to their medication therapies in a timely manner.
An estimated 50 percent or more of medications for chronic conditions, such as high cholesterol and diabetes, are not taken as prescribed. Medication non-adherence can lead to worsening health conditions, hospitalizations and death. Whatever the reason is for medication non-adherence, we have a solution.
Medication therapy management, otherwise known as MTM, is a term used for a program to help you manage your medications and health conditions (may or may not be covered by your insurance). Do you want to know how best to take your medications to get the most from your medications?. Would you like to have a complete list of the medications you take for your personal use?.
You may find that you have been prescribed a number of medications, and that you need to take them at different times of the day. It can be difficult to keep track of what medication you need to take and when. We offer a multi-dose packaging that bundles your medications together by date and time. For example, all your medications that are to be taken in the morning will be packaged together in one pack.

I love the IDEA of an independent pharmacy. They are small and easy to get to and try to be helpful.... But they never had my prescription in stock, they never called me if it came in, never called if they told me it would be in Monday and it wasn't. After too many back and forth phone calls and trips every month, I switched to cvs and miraculously my prescription is ready several hours after my doctor sends it and I can even go right through the drive through... I wish I could give a better review because I hate cvs on principle... But

Nice small little shop. I had called the day before for a prescription and they waited till I got there to run my insurance even though they had all the information then told me they were having problems. I drove about 45 minutes to get the prescription so wasn't to happy but they figured it out and I had to wait about 20 minutes for them to be done.

Brad is your local and trusted Pharmacist and he will do what it takes to satisfy your health and beauty needs. He's quick to put new items on the shelf when requests come in. So great to buy nail polish and make up without having to leave The Mill District. So happy Brad and North Amherst Pharmacy are our new neighbors!!

When my usual pharmacy stopped carrying the brand of medication I needed my husband spent 2 hours making phone calls to different pharmacies for me to find my brand. Finally we called Amherst Pharmacy and found out that not only can they get the brand I needed, but would have it in tomorrow. This pharmacy saved me! I will absolutely be filling everything there from now on.

The pharmacist/owner couldn't be friendlier or more accommodating. They seem to be able to do everything other pharmacies can do ... except the hours. It's 9-5, which is the hours I work. But if you call in they will open a bit early or stay a bit late so you can get it outside work hours. Or, you can wait for their Saturday hours.

After giving this pharmacy a chance to earn my business, I have happily moved all of my prescriptions there. Although a small place, they have a stunning range of medications in stock; anything they don't have, they acquire rapidly, most often within one day.
Most of all, the service is friendly, personable, helpful, informative, and thorough. Every problem (e.g., with insurance company responses) is handled on my behalf. Refills are performed with unmatched speed -- often less than 10 minutes. The feel is neighborly, making visits a pleasure. I couldn't ask for better.
