How long will this cold last?

Navigating a cold can be annoying, but knowing what to expect and understanding the stages of a cold can help us to manage our symptoms better.

Stage 1: Days 1-3
Incubation phase. You might feel a scratchy throat and slight fatigue. Remember, you can still be contagious even before symptoms kick in.

Stage 2: Days 4-7
This is when you're likely to feel the worst. Symptoms peak here with a blocked nose, headache, and possible cough. Stock up on lozenges and nasal sprays to ease discomfort.

Stage 3: Days 7-10
Recovery period! Most people start to feel better, but lingering symptoms may still be present. Keep hydrated and rest up.

Always consult a doctor if you have severe symptoms like a high fever or difficulty breathing. Talk to your friendly Capital Chemist Pharmacist today for help to reduce your cold and flu symptoms.

Staying hydrated is more than just drinking water—your body also needs electrolytes to maintain a healthy balance. Electrolytes like sodium, potassium, and magnesium help your body absorb water efficiently, support muscle function, and keep your energy levels steady. They’re especially important during exercise, hot weather, or when you're feeling under the weather. Adding an electrolyte drink or supplement to your routine can help you stay hydrated and feel your best, ensuring your body gets the nutrients it needs to perform and recover.

You could prevent a tragedy. Naloxone temporarily reverses the effects of an opioid overdose and can be easily used by anyone.

Naloxone works by blocking opioids from affecting the body. This reverses side effects including drowsiness or difficulty breathing. It has no effect on other drugs.

Naloxone is now available for free at Capital Chemist pharmacies; in the last two years we have made available over 3500 doses to vulnerable members of our communities.

For more information on the Take Home Naloxone Program, visit health.gov.au/our-work/take-home-naloxone-program

Playing sports this Winter? Kids, umpires, coaches and families on the sideline, remember to play safe in the sun!

Reduce your risk, and set a good example for the next generation by remembering the basics:
Cover-up - Clothing including a shirt, makes a great first line of defence
Wear a hat - Broad brimmed to cover ears, face and neck
Seek shade - Toddlers and babies should always be in the shade, even when they have a hat, clothes and sunscreen to protect their more delicate skin
Sunglasses - Not just a fashion accessory, but a vital part of sun protection especially if you are outside often
SPF 50+ Sunscreen - For all the bits you can’t physically cover

Be match-ready every day by following these tips every time you step out.
