Build Something Meaningful With Us

At Mint Health + Drugs, we believe pharmacy should be personal.

Not every patient fits into a standard medication or dosage form. Our compounding program allows us to work alongside patients, prescribers and healthcare professionals to create individualized medication solutions when commercially available options don't meet a patient's needs.

We're looking for an experienced Registered Pharmacy Technician with a passion for non-sterile compounding to join our specialized team at Blue Bottle Pharmacy.

Preparing customized compounds according to prescriptions,

Accurately weighing, measuring, mixing and preparing ingredients

Supervising pharmacy assistants in preparing capsules, creams, ointments, gels, liquids and other customized dosage forms

Customized capsules and oral preparations

Dermatological creams, ointments, lotions and gels

Customized strengths and dosage forms

Preservative‑free, dye‑free, alcohol‑free or other patient‑specific formulations where appropriate

Medication incident and near‑miss reporting

Compliance with applicable Mint policies, procedures and compounding standards

You’ll be expected to consistently follow established procedures while speaking up when something doesn’t look right.

Help Us Improve How We Compound We’re looking for more than someone who simply completes the day’s production.

As part of our specialized compounding team, you’ll be encouraged to identify opportunities to make our processes safer, faster and more consistent.

This could include:

Improving prescription entry and preparation workflows

Helping streamline pharmaceutical calculations and commonly used formulations

Identifying unnecessary or duplicated steps

Organizing ingredients and equipment to improve workflow

Helping maintain and improve compounding templates and practice tools

Supporting inventory management and reducing unnecessary waste

Identifying recurring workflow issues and recommending solutions

Helping develop efficient processes as our compounding volume grows

Strong mathematical and pharmaceutical calculation skills

Exceptional accuracy and attention to detail

Strong organizational and time‑management skills

Want to become an important part of a growing specialized pharmacy service
