Student Health cannot honor prescriptions from outside physicians. If a medication is unavailable at Student Health,you can fill the prescription at a local pharmacy or Temple University Hospital at the prevailing cost. You may visit the Self-Care Center, which is equipped with analgesics, decongestants, bandages, etc., and a scale for tracking weight. It is important for you to remember, however, that diagnosing illness correctly is necessary for you to be treated successfully. Please don't hesitate to ask to see one of our staff for guidance.
Condoms are also available for purchase at a discount.
Information on a variety of topics related to health and wellness is available from our Health Educator, who conducts workshops and is available on an individual basis to advise students and student groups. The Health Education Office is located on the lower level of Mitten Hall. Free, anonymous testing is available to you and all members of the Temple Community by Congreso de Latinos Unidos at the Main and Tyler campuses. You do not need to give your name. It is staffed by psychologists, a psychiatrist, drug and alcohol counselors, and sexual assault counselors.
