The Student Health Center has partnered with Keystone Pharmacy Services to provide The Pharmacy at LSU, a full-service pharmacy that serves the University community, including students, faculty, staff and visitors.
The pharmacy functions as any other retail pharmacy in that it provides over-the-counter drugs, flu and cold kits, vaccines, nutritional supplements and personal care items.
Currently, most insurance is accepted with plans to accept all forms of insurance. The pharmacy also credits itself with competitive prices.
Toni Scott, the pharmacist in charge at the LSU Student Health Center, said the pharmacy now delivers prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs to faculty and staff.
“We have a shiny new golf cart,” Scott said. “[Faculty and staff] just call and let us know what all they need, and we’ll make a delivery anywhere on campus.”
The Pharmacy at LSU also has an app that can be downloaded by searching “Mobilescripts” in the app store. The app allows users to create a profile and refill prescriptions and includes a pill reminder feature. Customers can also sign up for a text reminder service and the pharmacy will text users when prescriptions are ready or when they are due for a refill.
“We do immunizations, too,” Scott said. “I know previously for faculty, they had to pay $20 to get a flu shot, and now we can process their insurance, so it’s a zero copay. And I can go to them to do that at their office, also.”
The pharmacy also serves the athletic department, with one located in Tiger Stadium.
The pharmacy’s hours are the same as the Student Health Center. It is closed during home games.
