I have openly shared my struggles with medicating my young son for his ADHD. Managing his prescriptions, along with my asthma and other medications has become a nightmare. My family currently has TWELVE prescriptions!!! My frustration has also been finding my son’s ADHD stimulant in stock. (Walgreens has been the ONLY pharmacy to have it in stock) I’m constantly on the phone refilling prescriptions and visiting the pharmacy. I was excited to try the Walgreens mobile app since my current pharmacy does not have a mobile app that works.
The Walgreens Mobile app has a number of options to manage your prescriptions directly from your phone.
I had a prescription to transfer so, using Walgreens Mobile app, I simply took a photo of the bottle showing the prescription information.
I then just completed my patient information and pharmacy phone number into the Walgreens Mobile app.
The Walgreens Mobile app then showed that the prescription transfer had been submitted at 3:25pm.
At 4:14pm, less than an hour after using the Walgreens Mobile App to transfer the prescription, it was READY FOR PICKUP!
Four minutes later, I also received an email notifying me that my prescription was ready.
Prescription pick up was hassle-free with no waiting at all! (and the medication was in stock!)
4 Quick Tips to Manage Your Prescriptions
Create a dosing schedule listing the time, medication and dose.
Set an alarm. You can use the alarm on the Walgreens Mobile app.
Keep a medication diary. As a foster parent, I am required to do this and it is quite helpful.
Use a pill organizer. This is helpful since my son has morning, afternoon, and bedtime medicines.
