You may know the name on the box – but do you really know and understand exactly what your medicine does?
Understanding your medication can help you take it safely and get the best results from your treatment. Ask your pharmacist:
What is this medicine for?
When and how should I take it?
Could it interact with my other medication or supplements?
Are there side effects I should look out for?
What should I do if I miss a dose?
Bring along a list of everything you take, including vitamins and herbal products. Your The Local Choice Pharmacy pharmacist can help you make sense of it all – because your overall wellbeing is what makes us tick!
This Pharmacy Month, we're celebrating everything our pharmacists embody: Care for the neighbourhood, care for your family and trust. It's going to be a great month! Keep an eye out for more as we celebrate our pharmacists all month long.
