Save a pharmacy as a favorite
Saving a pharmacy as a favorite lets you find it faster on future prescriptions. iPrescribe supports two types of favorites:
- Patient favorite (yellow star): Saves the pharmacy to one or more specific patient profiles.
- Practice favorite (black star): Saves the pharmacy for the whole practice — useful for an in-office or nearby pharmacy your practice uses regularly.
Add or remove a favorite pharmacy
- Search for the pharmacy using the steps above. A list of results appears.
- Tap the star icon next to the pharmacy you want to save.
- Tap the yellow star to save it as a patient favorite. The star fills yellow to confirm it is saved.
- Tap the black star to save it as a practice favorite. The star fills black to confirm it is saved.
- To remove a favorite, tap the filled star again. The star returns to its unfilled state and the pharmacy is removed from favorites.
To view your saved favorites, tap the Favorites tab on the pharmacy search screen.
