What is a Specialty Pharmacy?

A specialty pharmacy provides complex and sometimes costly medications, that may require special storage and handling. These medications may not be available at your local pharmacy. The medications are injected, taken by mouth or infused. Sometimes, these medications have side effects that require monitoring by a trained pharmacist.

Reading Hospital Ambulatory Pharmacy focuses on providing these medications while providing you with excellent customer service and clinical support. We provide specialty pharmacy services for patients in the surrounding southeastern and central Pennsylvania area.
