Services
Compounding Pharmacy
We specialize in creating customized medications tailored to individual patient needs. Our compounding services address medication shortages, allergy-friendly formulations, and specialized dosage forms like transdermal creams and flavored lollipops. Our pharmacists work directly with healthcare providers to develop personalized treatment solutions that commercial medications cannot provide.
Prescription Delivery
Our prescription delivery service brings medications directly to Kitchener-Waterloo residents. We handle all prescription types including controlled substances, with delivery windows coordinated to match patient availability. This service maintains medication continuity for those with mobility challenges or busy schedules while ensuring proper storage and handling during transport.
Flu Shots
We provide annual flu vaccinations without appointments during flu season. Our pharmacists administer vaccines to eligible individuals aged 5 years and older, following provincial regulations. The service includes pre-vaccination screening, proper documentation for medical records, and post-vaccination monitoring to ensure patient safety and compliance with health guidelines.
Custom Pain Management Medications
Our compounded pain management solutions offer alternative delivery methods for patients with gastrointestinal sensitivities. We create topical formulations containing multiple analgesic agents that target specific pain areas while minimizing systemic side effects. These customized preparations are developed in collaboration with healthcare providers to optimize pain control for chronic conditions.
Custom Dentistry Medications
We develop specialized oral medications for dental applications in collaboration with local dentists. Our formulations include customized mouth rinses, lozenges, and flavored freezer pops that address specific oral health needs. These compounded preparations help manage dental pain, oral ulcers, and other conditions requiring targeted oral delivery of medications.

For almost a decade I relied on Gurinder and his team at Pharmasave. They are extremely customer focused, responsive, knowledgeable and all-round great people. They take the time to get to know you and you're always treated with respect. If I hadn't moved, I'd still be using their services. They genuinely care about your experience, each and every time.

One of the best pharmacies. Gurinder provides sound advice and really cares about his clients. He and his staff have supported our family through significant health issues and his vaccinations you don't even feel!

DO NOT USE THIS PHARMACY!!!!!! I used this Pharmacy and they constantly had "Technical issues", which prevented my prescription from my doctor who confirmed being sent many times to never go through. They just say "we don't have it". They never call you to tell you this, it always happens and you find out last minute. Most times I could not correct it with my doctor as they were closed. So MANY times I went without vital medication due to their fault. The Pharmacist is extremely rude (female) and very condescending. Please use another Pharmacy for your needs that

Contact Gurinder Brar's Fairway Lackner Pharmacy for the need of flu shots in Kitchener. I get my annual flu shot here and also bring in my family too. Till date, I have no complaints regarding any short supply or soreness after the vaccination. Things are well-managed and the pharmacy which works for a good number of years should always be trusted when it comes to any type of vaccination.

Fast and friendly service. The staff is knowledgeable and caring and is always ready to provide helpful advice. The online refills have been very convenient as my prescription is ready when I arrive! I highly recommend them.
