🧡 Remember, prescriptions are now FREE at Unichem!

On 1 July 2023, the Government scrapped the $5 prescription co-payment charge for fully funded medications from approved providers. So, you won’t pay anything when you pick up your next prescription at your local Unichem.

Prescriptions from specialists, and non-funded medicines, have $15 co-payments on prescription charges. However, if you and your family need more than 20 non-funded prescription items in a year, you’ll qualify for the Prescription Subsidy Scheme.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to our friendly Pharmacists in store who'll be more than happy to answer any questions you have regarding prescriptions.

Regarding an incident involving one of my team recently. Please note that I am in discussions with the patient and the staff member currently. I am taking this issue very seriously.
I would politely and with honest intentions suggest that the hate comments from people who are not directly involved in this case are causing more distress to everyone in this situation.
I am standing up and taking full responsibility for this situation.
However I can not discuss details of this case in a public forum. I appreciate that many people are outraged.
The irony of this situation is that the patient highlighted the issue in order to reduce judgement and hate in this world. I would respectfully ask that you consider these intentions before posting your views.
We continue to be committed to providing health services at the most stressful time in the history of our health system. You can have confidence that issues such as this have never happened in the past, nor will they ever happen in the future.
Yours kindly. Martin (Owner Pharmacist).

Long Covid (Part One)

It pains me that I still have to write about covid, but unfortunately its still a “thing”. The definition of Long Covid is variable, but you would generally be considered to have Long Covid if you still have symptoms of aches and pains, fatigue, or others several months after your infection. Some of the top researchers in the world are working very hard to figure out what mechanisms underlie Long Covid. One of the most believed theories is that the virus sits deep in tissues with a slightly altered structure to avoid the immune system. From there it can continue to cause problems.

Fatigue, brain fog, pain and other symptoms long after a viral infection is not new. Cases of chronic fatigue syndrome (myalgic encephalomyelitis) occur in nearly a third of patients who get Ebstein Barr Virus (Glandular fever).

Future Treatment Options:
Over time I am sure we will see complicated antiviral treatments get developed to totally rid the body of the Covid virus. If the HIV virus treatments are anything to go by, it will involve long term treatment with multiple medicines. This is not much comfort if you need to get your life back now.

Stay tuned for Part Two - how you can support your body through Long Covid.

Aww thank you. We will enjoy.
