20.01.2022 Are you one of the estimated 3% of Australians suffering from psoriasis? In addition to the uncomfortable and sometimes painful symptoms of the disease, psoriasis can significantly affect a sufferer’s quality of life. Some studies of people with psoriasis show that up to 70% will avoid swimming, and 40% will avoid playing sport. 12% will even avoid leaving their house, with many people experiencing anxiety and/or depression. While there’s no known cure for psoriasis yet, ther...e are treatments which can help to control the symptoms. These include topical creams or ointments, pills or injections, and UV or light therapy administered by a dermatologist. Ask our friendly pharmacists about the pros and cons of different treatment options, and which may work best for you.

13.01.2022 The delicate fluff falls from the kapok or cotton tree each year. In parts of Canberra's inner south and the Australian National University's (ANU) campus the fluff can be so thick it looks like light snow. But the head of Canberra pollen count at ANU, Simon Haberle, said the fluff was not actually springtime pollen. People often link it with hay fever because it occurs in spring but other plants like grasses are actually producing pollen at this time, causing asthma and hay fever. https://www.abc.net.au//fluff-trees-unfairly-blam/5822050.

12.01.2022 Our 2021 Community Calendars are now available in-store! This year’s calendar is supporting a cause particularly close to our hearts. Australia's black summer of 2019-2020 scorched nearly 20 million hectares, destroyed 6,000 buildings and tragically killed 34 people. The major fires directly affected a dozen Capital Chemist pharmacies and their communities in NSW and ACT.... All of our stores felt the flow-on effect, with thousands of evacuees stranded away from home. With this in mind, we are asking for a gold coin donation for our 2021 Capital Chemist Community Calendar. Your contribution will make its way to a local Rural Fire Service as a thank you to the brave men and women who helped protect us last year.

10.01.2022 Yes, it is getting to that time of year again. Here is some info from ACT Government. Being the bush capital Canberra has an abundance of native wildlife, inc...luding eight species of snakes. If you do come across a snake, don't think of it as a showdown. Just calmly back away and give it a wide berth. Snakes need food, water and shelter to survive. Keep your yard tidy to make it less attractive to snakes. If you see one in your yard, move pets and children away for an hour or so. It's most likely just passing through, looking for food, so just leave it alone. When walking, wear enclosed shoes and avoid walking in long grass. Snakes are an important part of the environment. Give them their space and they will give you yours. See more
