We introduced our flagship Medicine-On-Time packaging system in 1994, which has demonstrated a 50% increase in medication compliance through its structured approach to dosing.Our team of three pharmacists, billing specialists, and delivery professionals work collaboratively to provide comprehensive medication management, including home infusion therapies, dietary supplement consultations, and detailed Medication Administration Records.

Report
I called today to see if Athens Infusion & Pharmacy had Ivermectin in stock, as my doctor prescribed this to me, and it has been very difficult to find pharmacies that have it in stock. The lady who answered the phone informed me that they did not have Ivermectin in stock, which is fine, I am not surprised by that. However she then proceeded to ask who the medicine was for. I told her myself, and she said that Ivermectin is not safe for human use and will make me very sick. I am honestly appalled that someone working at a pharmacy would say such a thing. Ivermectin is on the WHO list of essential

If anyone has a chance to be associated with any of the staff there let me tell you that they are amazing. They stayed late on a Friday for my doctor to make medicine for me to save my site in my right eye. There is no thanks enough I could tell them how much I appreciate each and everyone! The hard work they do each and every day to help people is remarkable . Anyone would be blessed that come in dealings with them.

I can't say enough about the wonderful staff at Athens Infusion and Pharmacy. The customer service is the best I've encountered of ANY business I've had dealings with. They are helpful and willing to do whatever is required to take care of client needs. During the difficult period of moving a parent to assisted living they have been a true partner to me in assuring that the necessary medications are delivered accurately and on time. I am thankful for this extraordinary team of professionals.
