20.01.2022 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.

19.01.2022 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

19.01.2022 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

It is worth familiarising yourself with the symptoms, and speaking to your Doctor as soon as you notice them. You can read more about type 2 diabetes here: https://www.diabetesaustralia.com.au/about/type-2-diabetes/ See more

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

14.01.2022 Have you got a snake bite kit? Australia is home to many different species of snake, and while the best way to handle one is to go nowhere near it, sometimes ...the unexpected can happen. Having a snake bite kit with you if you are out in the bush, or in your car or home, can help you be prepared. Our team can help you put one of these together. A basic snake bite kit will usually contain: - 2-3 large heavy crepe bandages - Antiseptic cream - A thermal blanket - A marker pen - A snake/spider bite guide Knowing what to do in the event of a snake bite could one day save your life or the life of someone you love. To learn about what to do if someone is bitten by a snake, you can check out this page written by the Queensland government: https://www.health.qld.gov.au//what-to-do-if-you-get-bitte

11.01.2022 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

10.01.2022 Christmas is only a month away, so don't forget to put some thought into those gifts that aren't tangible. Our team is here to make sure your family gets the greatest gift of all this Christmas, a happy and healthy you!

09.01.2022 We are excited to have Surf Mud back in stock. Another great Aussie product.

08.01.2022 Did you know your gut is like a second brain? There are millions of microbes in your gut that talk to your actual brain, so what you eat can directly affect how... you feel, your energy levels, and your overall health and wellbeing. Eating a wide variety of healthy, fresh foods is a great way to nourish your gut microbiome. A healthy gut has a diverse community of microbes, each of which prefer different foods, so supporting them all can help them flourish! See more

08.01.2022 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

08.01.2022 Have you taken a look at this week's My Weekly Preview?

08.01.2022 When it comes to the dates on your foods, do you know the difference between Best Before and Use By? If you have a product that is "best before" a certain date,... it is still okay to eat for a while after this date, but it may have lost a bit of quality by this point. If your product has "use by" on it though, these foods are a little bit more serious. if sold and consumed after this date, they could pose a health and safety risk to the person consuming them, so it is best to follow the label and dispose of these if they pass this date. Some products may have a "use by" date that is well into the future when you buy it, but keep an eye on "once opened" warnings too. Some of these products stay well preserved in their packaging, but once they are opened may only last a few days or weeks. Remember, foodborne illness can be serious, so if you are not sure about a food, trust your gut and dispose of it safely! See more

04.01.2022 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.

04.01.2022 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. For more information, you can visit their website here: https://sleepcouncil.org.uk/best-drinks-before-bedtime/ See more
