GEM Edwards Pharmacy is an essential business and we are fully staffed and operational. We are continually monitoring the situation and will continue to safely provide the prescriptions that our clinics and patients rely on.

Also, as a compounding pharmacy, we always have and will continue to perform our daily detailed and thorough facility cleaning, in which most would consider a “deep clean”.  We use EPA registered disinfectants and germicidal detergents daily.
