UCSF IDS Pharmacy is integrated into the Department of Pharmaceutical Services at UCSF Medical Center. IDS pharmacy is comprised of 13 investigational pharmacists and 9 technicians, who service 3 medical center campuses: Parnassus Heights, Mt. Zion, and Mission Bay (BCH, Weill, and PCMB), plus regional sites BOPC, CCSM and POPC. IDS provides service-driven, comprehensive pharmacy services, including equitable and safe medication management, for patients participating in clinical trials conducted within UCSF Health Medical Center and clinics. When the IDS pharmacy manages the drugs for a particular study, all necessary drug control and record keeping functions are conducted for the investigator. We utilize Vestigo as our electronic accountability system. See the Services tab for a complete list of services provided by the IDS pharmacy.
