Out-of-hospital prescriptions
Komagome Hospital promotes out-of-hospital prescriptions, in accordance with the national government policy of dispensing separation.
You are asked to have your prescription filled at a dispensing pharmacy near you.
The benefits of having a “family pharmacy” include the following.
- The pharmacy will keep a record of your prescription history.
- The pharmacist will inform you on possible side effects of your medication, and interactions with drugs prescribed to you by other hospitals. The pharmacy will also keep a record of your allergies to help make sure your medication is safe for you to take.
- The pharmacy can give you information on the drugs prescribed to you by your doctor or dentist.
- The patient is free to choose any dispensing pharmacy as his/her family pharmacy.
Please present your prescription to a dispensing pharmacy no later than 4 days from the day the prescription is written.
