Medication
Homewood Medication Dispensary
For your convenience, Homewood Primary Care carries a limited number of pre-packaged, commonly prescribed medications. Review the Drug Formulary for a complete list of drugs, prices, and JHU Student Health Benefit Plan co-pays (prices are subject to change). You may choose to purchase your prescriptions at the clinic or have them sent to a local pharmacy.
- Note: the medication dispensary is currently only at our Homewood clinic location.
Medical Supplies
All our clinic locations carry some medical supplies such as crutches, wrist splints, and home blood pressure machines. These items must be prescribed by a SHWB care provider.
Wellness-To-Go Vending Machine
The machine is stocked with medications, wellness supplies, first aid, and contraceptives at prices well below those at a retail pharmacy. These products are available to all J-Card users, and only J-Cash is accepted as payment.
