Red Deer, Alberta

Your pharmacy for everyday health and the trip ahead.

Swift-Rx Pharmacy & Travel Clinic brings prescribing pharmacists, travel health and vaccinations together in one friendly, local pharmacy.

How we can help

Many reasons to visit, all under one roof.

Whether it's a prescription question or a trip abroad, start with a conversation with a pharmacist.

Prescribing pharmacists

Speak with a pharmacist who can assess and prescribe.

Need a prescription renewed or help with a new health concern? Our prescribing pharmacists can assess your needs, renew or adjust prescriptions, and prescribe treatment when appropriate.
  1. Prescription renewals and medication adjustments

    Continuing current treatments or adjusting doses and formulations when that's appropriate for you.

  2. Assessment of common health concerns

    Evaluating minor ailments and everyday health questions, and prescribing treatment when appropriate.

  3. Medication reviews and questions about side effects

    Sitting down to go over all your medications, interactions, and any side effects you might have.

  4. Travel health advice and prescriptions

    Personalized travel health consultations, destination advice, and travel-related medications.

Treatment depends on your assessment. If you need care beyond our services, we'll help direct you to the right provider.
