We are licensed pharmacists and public health professionals with more than 70 years of combined experience in pharmacy practice and global health. In the United States, our experiences cut across pharmacy practices in retail and drug stores, hospitals, and long-term care facilities.
We are here as professionals, to ensure that doing business with us will not only help you navigate on your path to positive health outcomes but allow you to indirectly support underserved communities in the United States and countries around the world.
Drug Information Service: We provide a LIVE Drug Information Service platform, operated by licensed pharmacists responding in real-time (instantly) to your drug-related questions.
HIL Pharmacy: Our Pharmacy (Opening soon) dispenses not just pharmaceutical products but patient-focused pharmaceutical care
Health Proposal Development Platform: This platform supports mental health interventions (mainly combating the opioid epidemic) in the United States and Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent health interventions around the world.
This is more than business to us; this is who we are! AskUSPharmacist.com emerged from the need to provide qualitative, patient-driven pharmaceutical care services. Look around in most pharmacies or drug stores, what do you see? 🤔 What you may have experienced and seen is not qualitative pharmaceutical care. We are interested in your overall well-being, which is at the core of EVERY pharmacist!
Ask US Pharmacists are 100% focused on helping you navigate all your medication questions and maximizing your therapeutic outcomes. We are not driven by pharmacy business metrics, we are not overwhelmed with “too many pharmacy activities”, and we are not “too busy” to answer you. We are here to take care of your medication needs “one patient at a time”. Getting your medication information from random sites and social media has shown to be very dangerous. Here you have access to LIVE drug experts providing simple, easy to understand and evidence-based answers tailored to your context. Everybody's therapy is unique.
We are passionate about supporting mental health interventions and safe use of medications. According to a recent CDC report1, an estimated 100,306 Americans died of a drug overdose in 2021 alone; a 29% jump from the previous year. We are focused on factors within the control of prescribers and dispensers to help prevent the tragic deaths of almost 200 individuals every day from an overdose. The annual cost (to you) associated with low optimization of your medications was $528.4 billion, equivalent to 16% of total US health care expenditures in 20162. This cost excludes other negative outcomes associated with pain and suffering.
