“ My team has noticed a boost in driver moral since the conversion.

SDS’s onsite management staff has been very supportive in driving change within the drivers.”

— Distribution Center Manager

“ During a snowstorm that enveloped much of our area we had a driver who went above and beyond what was called for given the circumstances.

His vehicle slid off the road on the way to his last stop, sustaining damage to the front end, and a tow truck was needed to pull him out and tow him back. Instead of bringing the drugs back to the pharmacy, he walked in the snowstorm one mile to complete the last delivery and one mile back to his vehicle to wait for the tow truck.”

— Pharmacy Operations Manager

“ Keep up the great work and please pass this ‘thank you’ on to our driver as it is important to know that what you do each day is recognized and truly appreciated by all involved.”

Statinzyme by Prescription Vitamins LLC Statinzyme is an advanced patent pending supplemental formula that was developed by a pharmacist to help prevent and relieve the harmful side effects of Statins and Beta Blockers.

Company Background Statinzyme is a supplemental formula that was developed by Dr. Paul Faerstein, the owner of Zuckerman Pharmacy in Brooklyn, New York. As a second-generation pharmacist, Dr. Faerstein is keenly aware of the drug nutrient depletion side effects caused by statins and routinely recommends dietary supplements to his customers to help reduce and prevent those side effects. Often he found himself recommending 9 or more products that ended up costing his patients hundreds of dollars. Recognizing an opportunity and frustrated by the lack of an affordable solution in the marketplace, Dr. Faerstein decided to create it himself, and Statinzyme was born.

Product Overview Statinzyme was developed by a doctor of pharmacy to reduce and aid in the prevention of side effects resulting from the use of cholesterol lowering medications. Such side effects may include muscle pain, muscle cramping, joint pain, mental confusion, memory loss, depression and liver damage. Numerous medical studies show that cholesterol-lowering medications may deplete your body of many essential vitamins and nutrients necessary to prevent side effects. The ingredients in Statinzyme are designed to replenish the vitamins and nutrients when taken in combination with your statin medication. A daily serving of 2 enteric-coated softgels will allow your medicine to work effectively while protecting your body from the side effects. There is evidence that the nine (9) ingredients in Statinzyme may also further reduce the risks of heart attacks and strokes. Statinzyme is made in the USA In a National Science Foundation (NSF) certified and

FDA audited facility that is compliant with the principles and guidelines of current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP).

Statinzyme’s ingredients are valued at over $100. Statinzyme retails for only $39.99.

Testimonials “ Statinzyme is a fantastic product that I recommend to all my patients taking statin drugs, and I also take it personally! The feedback has been very positive from everyone who has tried it. Please take a moment to check out the list of ingredients included in just 2 capsules, and you too will see the incredible value of Statinzyme!”

— Henry McGill, RPh Chancy Drugs

“ Cardiac disease is one of the major causes of death and disability in the United States and around the world. It dramatically decreases the quality of life in patients, even on an appropriate medication schedule that includes statins and beta blockers. These medications can be accompanied by undesirable side effects. The nutritional formula called Statinzyme has been developed to reduce the risks of heart attacks and strokes in patients taking cardiac medications. Its’ ingredients have been clinically proven to reduce muscle pain, muscle cramping, joint pain, mental confusion, memory loss and liver damage, associated with statin and beta blocker medications. Statinzyme can become an important component of a treatment plan increasing patient’s compliance and quality of life, while providing multi-organ nutrient support.”

— Aaron Uryash, MD . PhD, Cardiology MAHA (Member American Heart Association)

Company Background Three decades ago, a physician encountered a patient who required an anti-nausea medication that was no longer commercially available. The physician challenged a Houston area pharmacist to compound the medication. The prescription was a success, and the pharmacist saw that others in his field faced similar demands to help patients who required compounded medications. This network of pharmacists, united by a commitment to meet patient needs, was the foundation of PCCA (Professional Compounding Centers of America).

Today, PCCA has become the independent compounding pharmacist’s complete resource for fine chemicals, equipment, devices, flavors, ACPE-accredited training and education, pharmacy software, marketing, business and pharmacy consulting assistance. Our membership includes more than 3,900 independent community pharmacists in the United States, Canada, Australia, and other countries around the world.

Congratulates Phil Bunick on His Retirement

After 40 years of work in hospital pharmacy, and 36 years as a pharmacy director, Philip Bunick is retiring from his current job as Pharmacy Director at the UConn Health Center in Farmington this August. Bunick graduated from UConn in 1972, and is amazed at how much pharmacy has changed since then. He loves working with students because “they keep you in touch with what is currently happening in pharmacy.” Bunick believes that working with students is a give and take, and he benefits from the experience as much as they do. He says, “They have a lot of insight and refreshing ideas.

It’s nice to get a new perspective.”

Thanks to Bunick, the UConn Health Center now precepts a P1 and P4 student on rotation. Bunick is no stranger to working with students. In 20 plus years, working with up to ten students a year, he is constantly running in to past students, several of which have ended up working for him. “Those who make a good impression on their rotations have an advantage finding a job in this difficult job market,” he explains.

Beginning in July, the pharmacy will begin a residency program in collaboration with the School of Pharmacy. He also assisted in the enhancement of clinical programs and the reestablishment of the anticoagulation clinic.

His experiences have also made him an asset in selecting who will become accepted into the School of Pharmacy. For the past few years Phil has been involved with the interview process. He says he is extremely grateful that the School of Pharmacy asked him to be a part of this process since he believes that “the sky is the limit for pharmacy today” and the students selected will play a tremendous role in shaping the future of the profession.

Product Overview CAM is the leader in ensuring pharmacies are compliant with the IRS legislation requiring point of sale systems support the IIAS (Inventory Information Approval System) requirements. Working together with industry standards organizations such as SIGIS, CAM point of sale software has been certified and provides pharmacies with the required features to comply with these new IRS regulations. CAM’s built-in electronic payment processing identifies FSA/HRA eligible items and applies payments accordingly within the software.

Proven Features iPod Physical Inventory Application; IIAS Compliancy; SIGIS Eligible List; Auto Purchasing; Inventory Control; Customer Management; Multi-store Communications; Frequent Shopper; Integrated e-Commerce; Credit Card Processing; E-signature Capture for HIPAA, RX Log; A/R House Charge Requirements for a Merchant IIAS

The IRS requires plan administrators to approve FSA/HRA debit card transactions from a non-health care merchant only when the merchant supports IIAS. The IIAS system is a combination of inventory management and point-of-sale systems that manage the following three functions: • Confirm the health care eligibility of items purchased with a FSA or HRA card, by accessing eligibility flags in the merchant’s inventory database when merchandise is purchased with a FSA/HRA card.

• Generate a payment transaction that contains the required IIAS information.

• Support an information archive system that allows the merchant to respond to an IRS audits as required.

n The components of an IIAS system typically include: • An Inventory Management system that identifies health care eligible items based on the UPC code and compares them to the item purchased for nationally-branded, private label and special promotionally packaged branded items. SIGIS provides an Eligible Product List, a list of nationally-branded eligible products, to its Members.

• A Health Benefit Card Identification Capability to identify FSA and HRA cards via Bank Identification Number (BIN) ranges of all FSA and HRA cards. The list of required BINs is provided by the merchant’s acquirer.

• A POS payment card authorization system that generates IIAS transactions containing all of the required IIAS data elements, including an IIAS flag indicating an IIAS system was used, the Health Care Eligible Amount, and if supported, the Rx/Prescription Amount. The Rx/Prescription Amount is a subset of the Health Care Eligible Amount. This system should also support partial authorizations to improve the handling and acceptance of FSA and HRA card transactions.

• Settlement System that supports the settlement of approved IIAS transactions containing the required IIAS information to a merchant acquirer.

• A Transaction Retention capability that supports the storage and retrieval of IIAS transactions to respond to IRS audit requests to confirm the eligibility of items purchased on a FSA or HRA card.

This automated system is ideal for long term care pharmacies for short cycle filling as well as hospital pharmacies for unit dose packaging.

The IP128APS packaging unit is perfect for any pharmacy because of its compact size (2' x 2' footprint) and its low price. Up to 4 IP128® systems can be linked together allowing not only functional redundancy to prevent down time, but also to increase canister capacity to up to 512 canisters and for packaging speed of up to 240 packages per minute.

Because the IP128APS can be interfaced with any pharmacy information system, prescriptions with a 7, 14, or 30 day or other filling cycle can be automatically processed or queued for seamlessly packaging in multi-dose strips. The multi-dose strips can be packaged in a patient specific strip by med pass date or med pass time. Each package can even have a unique bar code. No other multi-dose packager comes close to the accuracy, speed, size, and quality of the IP128APS.

• Automated Multi-Dose and Unit Dose Packaging • Up to 20 tablets or capsules per package • Link up to 4 IP128APS systems for up to 512 canisters and 240 packages/minute speed • Fill multiple canisters with the same drug for high-volume meds • HOT Canister Refill - refill canisters while packaging is in process • Smart canister design prevents canisters from being loaded into wrong slot • Manual Tray for overflow drugs • Quick and Easy Print Ribbon Cassette Replacement • On-board Dehumidifier Keeps Pills Dry • Compact Footprint (Less than 2' x 2'): The IP128APS fits through any standard door • Light Weight – no need for reinforcing the floor • Up to 35 lines of text on a 2.8" x 3.1" (70mm x 80mm) package • Option for unique bar code on each package • Most accurate system available

Product Overview

Freedom Pharmaceuticals is committed to providing the highest quality fine chemicals, excipients and compounding bases available.

Freedom knows that quality and consistency gives our customers peace of mind, confidence, and a competitive advantage in their practice. To ensure the integrity of our chemicals, every monographed item is rigorously screened to meet the most current USP/NF/BP/ EP/JP or other specifications. Each lot of Freedom chemicals is first quarantined and subjected to a comprehensive, in-house identification analysis using multiple pieces of equipment, including FTIR. Once a positive thumbprint is confirmed, Freedom chemicals are sent to an independent analytical laboratory for further purity verification. Only chemical lots, that perform optimally to this point, will be scheduled for repackaging. All chemical lots are evaluated for color, appearance, solubility, and application specific requirements. Freedom creates a product monograph for each API, excipient, compounding base, and capsule, including statements on country of origin, micronization (as applicable), certificates of analysis, allergen/gluten, source of derivation, Kosher/Halal, BSE/TSE and others. This information is transparently available to our customers to help them make the best selections for their patients and practice.

Company Background For 40 years, Winland Electronics has been a recognized industry leader in the development and manufacture of critical condition monitoring solutions. Serving the healthcare, pharmacy, high tech and food service markets, the EnviroAlert security products are designed to monitor, log and alert when critical environmental conditions extend beyond programmed limits. Proudly manufactured in USA, Winland products are compatible with new and existing alarm systems and are available world wide.

Product Overview The EnviroAlert EA800-ip is designed for 24/7 critical condition monitoring in regulated industries such as pharmacies, hospitals, and commercial food service. Each device provides flexibility to simultaneously monitor wired and wireless sensors for conditions including: • Temperatures (high, low, cryogenic) • Relative humidity from 5 to 95% • Water presence (excellent in water heater and sink areas) • Contact closure (doors, etc) • Power loss Your EA800-ip real-time data is available to view and export through a secure intuitive web interface anywhere at any time for assigned personnel. Additionally, the LCD screen displays realtime sensor data 24/7 for the local team.

All of your critical wired and wireless sensor data is automatically

logged lowering labor costs and creating positive ROI. These accurate data logs are an integral component for regulation compliance including 21 CFR Part 11. Each sensor has a solid audit trail of data that can be graphed for quick overall trending visualization.

Receive alerts via multiple methods versus reliance on a single notification channel. The console LCD screen will flash and the audible buzzer will sound for immediate local notification and quick resolution. Alerts are also sent to designated personnel simultaneously via email and/or text to cell phones, notebooks, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. Alert notifications can be designated per device or per individual sensors.

System generated time and date stamped reports are available to view, download, and automatically email to multiple personnel per your regulatory requirements. Reports include sensor logs and charts, alarm logs, and device activity logs such as sensor parameter modifications.

Secure cloud-based technology provides quick large and small installations with no software management required.

EnviroAlert systems can provide additional coverage in areas such as robot dispensers, liquid nitrogen storage, kitchen coolers and freezers, IT server rooms, clean rooms, warehouse and storage areas, and much more.

The EnviroAlert product line offers scalable monitoring solutions. If your application doesn’t require a network solution, install the EnviroAlert EA800. This non-IP model provides an economical means of viewing real-time data and accessing data logs via the console USB port. The audible buzzer, flashing real-time data LCD screen and relay outputs provide critical situation alerts.

Winland’s wide variety of products will save you money by managing your time-consuming 24/7 critical condition monitoring tasks.

Common Side Effects: • Muscle Pain & Cramping • Mental Confusion • Liver Damage • Numbness & Pain in the Hands & Feet

• Depression • Joint Pain • Fatigue

Choleterol-lowering medications deplete your body of essential vitamins, nutrients and enzymes, which can cause serious side effects. Statinzyme works by restoring these vitamins, nutrients and enzymes that may be lost while taking cholesterollowering medications.

The all-in-one formulation of Statinzyme combines 9 ingredients at optimal dosages. Each enteric-coated serving contains: • Coenzyme Q10 (150mg) • Flaxseed Oil (400mg) • Resveratrol (50mg) • Evening Primrose Oil (400mg) • High Potency Fish Oil (40/20)

• B6 (Pyridoxine) (50mg) • B12 (250mcg) • Natural Vitamin D3 (2000IU) • Folic Acid (800mcg)

(1000mg, 400mg EPA/200mg DHA)

When taken in combination with statins, in addition to aiding in the prevention and relief of side effects, the ingredients in Statinzyme may further reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
