Literacy is the foundation of effective healthcare, but nearly 9 in 10 US adults have less-than-proficient health literacy, according to a 2022 study by the Milken Institute, which makes it difficult for them to access the care they need, especially for often-stigmatized behavioral healthcare conditions.

Providers have a duty to help the individuals in their care understand their healthcare needs and options, and specialized community pharmacies like Altruix are well equipped to support both sides of the equation.

Those of us who have spent years in behavioral health know how challenging side effects of antipsychotics like Tardive Dyskinesia can be. TD can negatively impact an individual's quality of life; nearly half of individuals experiencing TD also experience anxiety or depression as a result of their symptoms, according to Psychiatric Times.

Our specialized pharmacy services can help you connect the individuals in your care to medications like Austedo and Ingrezza that can improve their quality of life by managing the prior authorization process, navigating financial support options, speeding up the prescription fulfillment process, and offering free delivery.

Provide the medication the individuals in your care need, when they need them. Reach out to us and find out how we can help.

Today, we honor the veterans who have served our country with courage and selflessness.

For many, the path home includes ongoing battles with mental health challenges such as PTSD, depression, or substance use disorder. Access to timely, consistent, and coordinated care can make all the difference in those journeys.

Alongside the behavioral health providers and care teams who serve veterans every day, we help remove barriers to medication access, simplify care coordination, and make it so no one has to face their recovery alone.

This Veterans Day, we stand with them, and with every individual working toward healing and hope.

Local pharmacies make the challenging landscape of behavioral health treatment easier to navigate.

Take the story of Andrew, an individual struggling to keep up with the treatment his condition required, and Kyle, one of Altruix's pharmacists. Kyle took a personal interest in helping Andrew stay on track with his injections, and when Andrew started struggling to keep his appointments again, Kyle took the initiative to find him and give him the support he needed to get back on track.

These bonds of trust and compassion are what community pharmacies like Altruix strive every day to create and strengthen.

Community pharmacies are an indispensible part of mental and behavioral health care. With millions of Americans living with mental illnesses, it takes the hard work of pharmacists and technicians to bridge the divide between care provider and individual and improve health outcomes.

This National Pharmacy Week, we celebrate the hardworking pharmacists and pharmacy techs at Altruix and everywhere who put their hearts into their work every day to make a difference.

Today is National Pharmacy Technician Day.

In behavioral health, every detail matters and pharmacy technicians are often the ones making sure nothing falls through the cracks. From managing prior authorizations to coordinating deliveries and helping ensure individuals get the medications they need on time, techs are a critical part of the care process.

We’re proud to work alongside pharmacy technicians who bring consistency, accuracy, and care to every interaction. Thank you for the essential work you do today and every day.

Medication only works when you take it, and taking it can be hard when you have a complex medication regimen to keep track of, high copays to pay, or too many insurance hurdles to jump over.

Local, community pharmacies with behavioral healthcare expertise can tear those barriers down and make sure you have the tools you need to live a healthier, more independent life.

Recent Medicaid policy updates, such as new work requirements and funding caps, are poised to increase your administrative burdens and threaten continuity of the care the individuals who rely on you need.

With prior authorization support, adherence tracking, and LAI coordination, Altruix stands committed to help you lighten your load and continue providing high-quality care to the best of your ability in these turbulent times.

October is Substance Use Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and create space for conversations that support recovery.

Access to treatment is one of the most effective tools in prevention. When care is delayed or hard to reach, recovery can feel out of reach too. Altruix works alongside behavioral health providers to remove those barriers by simplifying medication access, supporting prior authorizations, and delivering care where it’s needed most.

Recent updates to treatment guidelines are helping providers start care sooner and give individuals more flexible options. With fewer delays, more people can get the support they need, when they need it.
Prevention is not just about stopping substance use. It is about opening the door to care and making sure help is there when someone is ready to take that next step.

Throughout the last 40 years we have grown, specialized, and became larger, but we haven’t forgotten where we came from. Today, Bank’s Apothecary is based in the suburbs of Philadelphia and deals with patients of all colors and stripes. Bank’s Apothecary is made up of a diverse community of employees, vendors, clinicians and patient care advocates. We understand that our diversity makes us stronger, our rainbow makes us shine brighter and our devotion to our roots makes us proud.
