💊 We will be CLOSED over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend. Bear in mind it may take a little longer to get your prescriptions. Check now if you need more to avoid disappointment 💊

Be a good egg - order and essential medications you're running low on in good time before the Easter bank holiday weekend.

Many GP surgeries require at least 3 working days to process repeat prescriptions so hop to it to make sure you're covered.

The 4Ts are signs of type 1 diabetes in children (and adults).

They’re simple to remember and if you spot any of these signs, at any time, see a doctor for a diabetes test immediately:

Toilet (increased wees and wet nappies or unusual bed wetting) 🚽
Thirsty (drinking lots) 💧
Tired (more than usual) 😴
Thinner (the child may look or feel thinner or their clothes may be looser) ⚖️

While these symptoms don’t always mean diabetes, they should be checked immediately. As if type 1 diabetes is left undiagnosed, it can make you really ill, really quickly and lead to a potentially fatal condition called diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA).

Please hit share and help spread awareness of the 4Ts.

Together, we can save lives.
