COMPRESSION GARMENTS

Kilgore's Medical Pharmacy specializes in compression garments. We have a wide variety of styles and brands that include Jobst and Medi brands for graduated compression stockings. There are over-the-counter compressions and three different classes (I, II, and III) of therapeutic prescription levels. Both the prescription and over-the-counter stockings are available in knee-high, thigh-high, waist-high, and maternity styles. TED hose, non-graduated compression stockings for patients who are bedridden, are also available. Other compression products found at Kilgore's are lymphedema sleeves, gauntlets, gloves, and a rental lymphedema pump to help relieve swelling in the arms and legs.

Patients just need to stop by the pharmacy and talk to our Support Hose Specialist available Monday - Friday, 9 am - 4 pm and by appointment.

Most insurance companies will not pay for compression stockings.
