Whooping cough Vaccinations Vaccination against pertussis is something to consider if you are likely to come into contact with infants (grandchildren) because they are unlikely to have immunity against this terrible cough. We offer Boostrix, which protects against diptheria, Tetanus and acellular pertussis. Cost is $75 ( Free to pregnant women & people aged 65+ or if you have sustained a wound and require a tetanus booster)
Smoking Cessation Subsidized nicotine replacement patches, gum and lozenges are now available through your pharmacist without a prescription. These are available at the normal $5 fee, plus an initial $5 prescribing fee.
Treatment of minor ailments Our pharmacists can recognise common health complaints such as thrush, allergies, pain or diarrhoea. We give advice or, where appropriate, medicines that will help to clear up a range of conditions.
Eye infections If your eyes look red and feel gritty and uncomfortable, or itchy, or if you have sticky fluid on your eyelids, you may have conjunctivitis. Our pharmacists can prescribe Chloramphenicol, an antibiotic eye drop or ointment to help you recover from a bacterial infection like conjunctivitis more quickly. VIEW MORE
