Welcome to Sandstone Pharmacies Fifth Avenue Calgary

Dedicated to Providing an Exceptional Level of Professional Care

Sandstone Pharmacies Fifth Ave is your downtown pharmacy destination. Located on the +15 level of Fifth Avenue Place (formerly Esso™ Plaza), we are easily accessed from numerous downtown office buildings through the +15 system. Our early opening time of 7:00 am allows you to drop off your prescriptions on your way in to work for pickup at your later convenience. We also provide a full selection of over the counter medications, vitamins and herbals, cosmetics, confections, lottery, transit passes, magazines, gifts and cards at our Hallmark store.

Whatever your needs, you can depend on our knowledgeable health care staff to provide the highest quality of service and advice. Our dispensary staff of pharmacists and dispensary assistants is dedicated to providing an exceptional level of professional care, the same level of care you will find throughout our store. While our dispensary is the core of our business, we also offer a wide selection of frontshop products.

We welcome the opportunity to show you what independent community pharmacy is all about!

Custom Packaging

In addition to providing your medications in vials, we are pleased to offer the following packaging options as well:

Blister Packs – Medication Made Easy:

Easy to Use
Reduce Errors
Improve Compliance

A blister pack is a weekly card that contains 28 separate clear bubbles called blisters. Your pharmacist will fill the blisters with the right medications to be taken at the prescribed times. All you need to do is push out the medications through the seal. Once your blister pack is empty, your pharmacist will provide you with a new one. Feel free to contact us if you have questions – we are here to help. Our pharmacists are available for one on one consultation, for which the fees are covered by most benefit plans. Contact us for further information. We would love to see you. It is important to manage your health and attend one of our clinics.

Strip Packaging – Safe, Easy, Accurate:

This state of the art system of medication delivery provides your medications in easy to open strips of pouches that have the dosage times printed on each pouch. The pouches are accurately filled by a packaging machine, reducing the amount of human handling and potential for errors. Another machine then carefully and precisely checks each pouch, ensuring that each pouch has exactly the right number and type of medication in it that it is supposed to. Just tear open the pouches, take all the medications and never worry about remembering to take all of your medications. It’s that simple.
