Make the most of your Pharmacist...
...for dispensed medicines
The pharmacy is where you go for medicines and for
the pharmacist's advice on how to take them. Pharmacists are trusted health professionals
whose job is to help people to get the best out of their medicines. They know
exactly what's in your medicine and will be happy to answer any questions. You
can be sure that your pharmacist will see that your medicine is at the right
strength, in the right dose and will check that you know how to take or use it
properly. They will also cross reference any other drugs you are currently taking.
Many pharmacists now offer a prescription collection and delivery service.
...for minor ailments
If you're feeling off-colour, but don't feel ill enough
to go to the doctor, ask your pharmacist for advice. Pharmacists have been trained
to offer helpful, easy-to-understand advice on the treatment of everyday minor
ailments for yourself and all the family, anything from headaches and coughs
and colds, to cold sores or dermatitis.
Your pharmacist will know when medical
help is needed, and will not hesitate to refer you to your doctor if your symptoms
demand it. Often, however, an over-the-counter remedy will be all you need, and
it's worth remembering that pharmacies offer far more medicines than any other
outlets. That's because many of today's effective non-prescription medicines
can only be supplied under the supervision of a pharmacist, which means they
are only available at a pharmacy. Remember, too, that you can talk to your pharmacist
in confidence, even about the most personal symptoms. Like doctors, pharmacists
have a professional code which means all personal information you give them will
be treated in the strictest confidence. All the more reason to make the most
of your local pharmacist!
