NovaBay recently added six new pharmacies as Avenova channel partners, enabling it to serve patients in all 50 states, the company said in a statement. By contracting directly with these pharmacies, patients are guaranteed to receive the best pricing and quality service when filling their Avenova prescriptions, according to NovaBay. “Our commitment to a quality patient experience, along with our expanding national presence ensures every patient who wants Avenova can obtain it at the best price,” said Dan Richards, CEO of Meds In Motion Pharmacy, one of Avenova’s channel partners.
