 Good Neighbor Pharmacy
As a Good Neighbor Pharmacy, we are independently owned and operated, which makes us different than the big chain stores. Our pharmacists live and work in your own neighborhood, and are committed to helping make the community a better place to live. We are ready to help you with any questions you may have about the prescriptions you are taking and can guide you through the maze of information about staying healthy. Every member of the Good Neighbor Pharmacy network offers you competitive prices on prescriptions and other items while backed by the resources to provide the latest information and counseling on the healthcare products you are taking.

 Diabetes Shoppe
Our locally owned and operated Stephens Pharmacy Diabetes Shoppe (at our Honesdale store) makes living with diabetes easier by providing simple diabetes information, quality products and individualized support to help you manage your diabetes.
Our pharmacists and staff have received specialized diabetes training from Diabetes Shoppe® to ensure that they have the knowledge and expertise about the diabetes supplies and products, medications and lifestyle issues that affect you everyday.
We know it takes more than insulin alone to enjoy a long healthy life with diabetes. That’s why Stephens Pharmacy Diabetes Shoppe is there to provide you with the complete, comprehensive education and care that people with diabetes need and want. back to top
Compounding
Most mass produced medications have limited strengths and forms (pills, creams, etc.) available which do not meet the needs of all patients. Compounding customized medications can overcome these obstacles and allow the physician to adjust dosages or change a formulation for a particular patient.
Working with the prescribing doctor, compounding medication into a different dosage form might be the solution when a patient is unable to take or uncomfortable taking the manufactured form of the medication.
Starting with commercially available products, our pharmacists work with your physician to:
- Increase or decrease doses or strengths
- Change dosage form (instead of a pill, try a topical cream, etc.)
- Add ingredients to make combination drugs
- Remove ingredients from combination drugs
- Add better-tasting flavor
- Eliminate preservatives
- Reduce irritants
- Add emollients
- Add a slow-release factor
We also work with veterinarians to compound special flavors and treat forms for pet medications.

We are happy to offer the Tasty Meds Flavoring System to create a more flavor-friendly option for both children and adults.

Medication Packaging
Stephens Pharmacy provides special packaging for those who require their medications to be organized by dose according to the time of day and the day of the week. This is especially helpful for seniors or those taking multiple medications and is useful to patients and caregivers alike. Studies have shown that patients with packaged dose medications are more likely to take their prescribed medications as directed.
