Our experienced drug information pharmacists have access to an extensive array of medical and pharmacotherapeutic resources, enabling us to efficiently answer questions on a wide range of drug information requests. We provide answers in English and in French to questions pertaining to, for example, therapeutics, adverse effects, interactions, drug identification and availability, compounding, stability and compatibility, drug administration and pharmacokinetics of medications.
Our current clients include healthcare providers, namely pharmacists employed by community pharmacies, hospitals, governmental and professional organizations. From within The Ottawa Hospital, we answer requests from physicians, pharmacists, nurses, pharmacy technicians and other healthcare professionals, including those in training, within the institution.
Our goal is to help pharmacists fulfill their role as clinical practitioners, as drug information providers, as educators and as managers.
