🚭 October is Stoptober - your chance to take control of your health and quit smoking for good 💪🔥

Whether you've quit, started again, or switched to va**ng, it’s vital to let your doctor know. Why? Because smoking directly affects the treatment and management of long-term conditions like:
❤️ Coronary heart disease (CHD)
🦵 Peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
🧠 Stroke or TIA
💉 High blood pressure (hypertension)
🩸 Type 2 diabetes
🫁 COPD and asthma (in adults)
💭 History of psychosis, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder
🚰 Chronic kidney disease (CKD)

Your smoking status plays a big role in your care plan. Don’t keep it to yourself - tell your GP.

💬 Want to quit? Help is out there:
👉 Speak to your GP
👉 Call the NHS Smokefree Helpline 0300 123 1044
👉 Or visit: https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/quit-smoking/nhs-stop-smoking-services-help-you-quit/

Every day smoke-free is a win 🏆

Pharmacists do so much more than dispense medicines. They offer expert health advice, help manage long-term conditions, provide vaccinations, and guide you on safe, effective treatments. 💊

This year, let’s celebrate the vital role they play in keeping our communities healthy — often as the first point of care.
