Protecting Your Health at Our LA Compounding PharmacyOur Emergency and Evacuation Policy

At Carr Drugs Compounding & Wellness, we know having access to your medication and records during a time of emergency is important to you. We have several steps in place in the event that there is an evacuation or emergency that affects our area, View our Emergency and Evacuation Policy below:

  • All prescription information and pharmacy records are always secure and accessible. All pharmacy records are backed up to an offsite server in Shreveport, LA.
  • In the event of an evacuation, all phone lines are rolled over to our owner, Randy Carr’s, cell phone, and he can access all records remotely. Any patient or pharmacy will be able to get in touch with one of the owners by dialing any of the Carr Drugs Compounding and Wellness, LLC telephone numbers, and prescriptions can be transferred at that time.
  • If re-entry is not allowed, we will keep our customers and staff updated using social media, and by updating our Carr Drugs website. We will be monitoring both Carr Drugs email 〈pharmacy@carrdrugs.com〉 and Facebook page, and can answer any questions or requests in the event that phone lines or cell service are down.
  • If you evacuate, we recommend you bring your medications in your prescription bottles with the pharmacy labels. If a State Of Emergency is declared for our area, having your prescription bottle with you ensures that you can get 1 emergency refill until the alternate pharmacy can contact us or your doctor. We also recommend you ask your doctor for an additional written prescription for maintenance medications that you can keep in your wallet or a safe location.

More things to consider during hurricane season:

  • Refill your medication on time so you always have an adequate supply. Carr Drugs has AutoFill available that automatically refills your prescription.
  • Keep a copy of your prescription profile with your important papers that you can take with you. Carr Drugs can print your profile at any time.
  • Always keep your prescription bottles with the pharmacy label to take with you in the case of an evacuation.
