22.01.2022 The labels on your medicines contain a lot of information. It's name, the dose, and something you might not look at as often - the expiry date. If the medicine ...is not something you use often, or stopped using, you may find it is out of date. Routinely going through your first aid kit and medine cabinet and checking the expiry dates on your medicines is an important step to reducing possible accidents from someone taking or using something they shouldn't. If you find something that is past it's date, set it aside somewhere safe and bring it into the Pharmacy as soon as you can for proper disposal. See more

21.01.2022 There is no question that drinking caffienated drinks well into the afternoon and evening can disrupt your sleep, but what SHOULD you drink before bed? While ...a popular solution for some to get to sleep is a whiskey nightcap, this is not advisable at all. While alcohol can make you fall asleep fast, it contributes to poor sleep throughout the night, disrupting REM sleep, interrupting your circadian rhythm, and causing havoc when your brain and body need to be resting. The Sleep Council in the UK have provided some great suggestions for alternatives to the nightcap. Warm milk is effective in stress reduction, and even the psycological link we have between a glass of milk and bedtime may even be responsible for our more restful sleep after drinking one. Herbal teas like chamomile and peppermint also have properties that can relax the body and soothe you off to sleep.

19.01.2022 No new cases for our region again today, but Queensland has recorded 2 cases of coronavirus (COVID-19). There are currently 28 active cases of COVID-19 in Queen...sland. Currently, 16 of the active cases are in hospital. To date, 1,084 people have recovered and sadly, 6 people have died of the disease. This brings the total number of cases to 1,126. Each day, total cases may not equal active plus recovered plus deaths, as information for some cases is still pending and will be updated in due course. Detailed information about COVID-19 cases in Queensland including maps of cases by HHS and LGA, likely source of infection, age and gender, testing completed, and self-quarantine notices issued, can be found here: www.health.qld.gov.au/covid-data

19.01.2022 This week is Sleep Awareness Week! Getting good sleep is crucial to making sure your mental and physical health stays at it's peak. When we aren't getting appropriate, quality sleep, our bodies don't have time to rest and repair, and our brain doesn't have the time to process information it has learned efficiently. If you are having problems with your sleep, have a chat to your Pharmacist today, so we can help you get back to sleeping like a baby again. For more information about Sleep Awareness Week, visit https://www.sleephealthfoundation.org.au/

12.01.2022 First day of spring showing off down at Dicky Beach this morning

11.01.2022 Did you know that the liver weighs 1.5kg? That's about the same weight as a small chihuahua or a cricket bat? It can regenerate, it's one of the most import...ant organs in your body and is the topic of our latest podcast episode. Stream 'My Amazing Body' at https://link.chtbl.com/2svTEY9Y or subscribe on your podcast app or wherever you get your podcasts

10.01.2022 Don't forget your sunscreen! You might be thinking, it's not hot enough for that yet is it? Remember that sunburn is not about heat, but UV rays. Here in Aust...ralia, the UV is a lot stronger than in other places around the world, and you can even get burnt on cloudy days. If you are going outside, even in your own yard, check the UV rating on the weather websites and protect your skin appropriately. If you are not sure where your sunscreen is, or which kind of sunscreen will be best for you and your family, come in and have a chat with our team today! See more

09.01.2022 Summer is fast approaching! Our top pick is Surfmud the lotion SPF30. It’s a clear, mineral based sunscreen specifically formulated for active, ocean loving lifestyles. This hydrating, sweat resistant formulation for the face and body helps protect the skin from the harsh conditions faced by beach goers.

08.01.2022 A conversation can truly change a life. Just picking up the phone, asking someone you care about "R U OK?" and having a chat with them can sometimes be the high...light in their day and it is always worth making time for, every day of the year. For more information about 'R U OK? Day' and ways to talk to people if you aren't sure what to do, visit https://www.ruok.org.au/ See more

08.01.2022 Planning on doing a bit of gardening this spring? Grass and pollen allergies can affect those who suffer from them when it comes to tending the garden, but th...ere are lots of ways to reduce your exposure and keep healthy this Spring! It is wise to avoid mowing the grass if you can, and stay inside when it is being mown. If you are the only one who can mow it, remember to wear a mask and take a non-drowsy antihistamine before you start that mower. Gardening in the mid-afternoon is also a wiser idea than gardening in the morning, as pollen counts can be higher as the morning dew evaporates. Choosing the right plants for your garden can help too. Plant flowers and trees that are insect-pollinated, rather than wind-pollinated to reduce the amount of pollen blowing around in your yard. If you need help with allergy symptom relief and prevention, have a chat to our Pharmacists today. See more

08.01.2022 This week is Women's Health Week While it may look a little different this year, it is still a time for us to turn our focus to the health of all the ladies and girls in our community. There are some fantastic online events being held, everything from women's health talks to yoga classes! You can find out more at https://www.womenshealthweek.com.au/the-week/

07.01.2022 When was the last time you had a chat to your Pharmacist about your medicines? MedsChecks are one of many important tasks our Pharmacists do, taking time to sit down with you and discuss how you are going with your medicines, whether anything could be better, and discuss any other potential questions you may have about managing your medications. If you have never had a MedsCheck, or are due for another one, give the Pharmacy a call today and we can help organise one for you.

06.01.2022 If you took our advice from earlier in the week and had a look through your medicine box to find a medicine that is past it's best before date, don't throw it i...n the bin! Expired medicines that end up in the bin can end up in all sorts of places we don't want them; in the soil, in our waterways, or in the bellies of wildlife who don't know what it is! Here at the Pharmacy we have the facilities to dispose of expired medicines properly, to make sure they do not end up in any of these places. If you find something at home that needs to be taken care of, bring it in to us! See more
