West Side Pharmacy and Compounding

11/12/2026

When we think about Veterans Day it is easy to focus only on the big, historic moments. But for us, it feels much more personal than that.

It feels like the familiar faces we greet across the counter every week. It feels like the stories shared in passing, the quiet strength of neighbors who gave years of their lives to protect ours, and the deep pride we feel knowing our small corner of Benton has been shaped by people who raised their hands to serve.

Inside our own West Side family, this day carries real weight. Many of us know firsthand what it means to love someone in uniform. To watch them pack a bag, to count down the days until the next phone call, and to carry the quiet worry and immense pride that comes with military life. So when we say we honor both those who served and those who waited at home, we truly mean it from the bottom of our hearts.

Service doesn’t end when the uniform comes off, and neither does our gratitude. Since 1953, caring for this community has been our life’s work, and taking care of our veterans and their families will always be one of our highest privileges.

To every veteran in Benton and beyond, and to the spouses, parents, and children who sacrificed right alongside you: thank you. You have given us so much, and we are endlessly grateful.

Happy Veterans Day, from our family to yours. 🇺🇸

One of the hardest parts of watching your parents grow older is realizing you can’t be by their side every minute of the day. 💙

If you worry about Mom or Dad keeping track of a dozen different prescription bottles, you don’t have to handle it alone.

Through our MedSync & Bubble-Packing Program, we do the sorting for you, organizing every dose by date and time in easy-open, bubble packs. Then our delivery team brings them straight to their doorstep, free, anywhere in Saline County 🚗

Less confusion. Fewer missed doses. Just peace of mind knowing the people who always took care of you are being taken care of, too 🤍

📞 Call us at (501) 778-3151 to learn more today!

We are saddened to hear the news of West Side Wellness closing its doors. While West Side Wellness is part of our shared history, we want to clarify that West Side Pharmacy & Compounding is independently owned and operated, and we are not affiliated with or owners of West Side Wellness.

The circumstances surrounding their closure further highlight the urgent need for meaningful healthcare reform, including fair, reasonable, and timely reimbursement for healthcare providers. Independent healthcare businesses deserve the opportunity to thrive while continuing to serve their communities.

To our patients and community, thank you for trusting and supporting West Side Pharmacy & Compounding for decades. Your loyalty allows us to continue doing what we love: caring for our neighbors.

We are proud of our history, committed to our community, and here to stay! 💙

-Blake, Maddi, and Zack

Behind this counter, we’ve watched tiny toddlers holding their parents’ hands turn into young adults picking up their own prescriptions. We’ve shared in your brightest milestones, and we’ve quietly held space for you on days that were heavier than most.

To us, being your pharmacy has never been about handing a bottle across a counter. It’s about knowing your family, carrying the worry alongside you, and showing up every single day to make sure you never have to navigate your health alone.

Thank you for letting us be a small part of your story in every season of life. We’re always here when you need us. 💙 (501) 778-3151

Behind every prescription that crosses our counter is a person we care about.

It’s the tired mom picking up medicine for her sick baby. The son picking up refills for his aging parents. The neighbor who just needs a reassuring word and a familiar smile.

We don’t just count pills here, we look after the people we’ve grown up beside.
Because around here, you aren’t just a patient.
You’re family, and you never have to walk through health challenges alone.

Thank you, Benton, for letting our family take care of yours.

And if your not a patient at West Side Pharmacy, we'd love to change that!

We’re still smiling looking back at all the fun we had at Ghost Town a couple of weeks ago! 🎃🧡

Nights like that remind us why we love doing what we do. Seeing our downtown square packed with familiar faces, incredible costumes, and so much laughter makes us proud to call this community home. From the little ones trick-or-treating to old friends catching up under the lights, thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth to say hello.

Serving you isn’t just what we do, you are family to us!

Wishing everyone a safe, fun, and sweet Halloween tonight from the entire West Side Pharmacy crew!👻✨

And as always, we're here for you (501) 778-3151

Open Enrollment can feel overwhelming with all the paperwork, commercials, and confusing plan options. But you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Whether you're navigating Medicare or looking at individual insurance options for the upcoming year, our goal is the same: making sure your prescriptions are covered at prices that make sense for you.

Before you commit to a plan for next year, let’s make sure you’re taken care of.

Give us a call at 501-778-3151 to set up an in-person plan review right here at our Military Road location. We'll help you look at your coverage, make sure your prescriptions are included, and give you peace of mind for the coming year. 💙
