Hi all… If you have scripts to be dispensed before the end of the year, you are welcome to drop them off early to collect at a later date!

This also helps us through this busy period 😀

Beat the Heat! 🌞

Hot days are here, and staying hydrated is one of the simplest ways to protect your health. Dehydration and heat exhaustion can sneak up quickly — especially in kids, older adults, and anyone on medicines that affect fluid balance.

💧 Top tips to stay cool:
• Sip water regularly (don’t wait until you’re thirsty!)
• Avoid long periods in direct sun
• Check in on neighbours, friends and family
• Watch for early warning signs like dizziness, headache, dry mouth or fatigue

If you’re unsure whether any of your medicines increase heat-related risks, pop in and chat with our friendly team — we’re here to help you stay safe all summer long.

🌴 Stay cool, stay hydrated, and take care of each other!

Celebrating Our Team: A Relaxing End-of-Year Cruise

As we wrap up a very busy year at Pharmacy for Life, it was a real treat to bring all our staff together for a relaxing cruise up the beautiful Mooloolaba canals. We spent the day enjoying prawns, a delicious cheese platter, and the best company we could ask for. A big thank you to everyone who made it a wonderful day out and for all the hard work throughout the year. Here’s to a healthy and happy new year ahead!
