Hypertension is currently the most prevalent cardiovascular disease in Zimbabwe.It is often called a silent killer because it may show no warning signs or symptoms.Because of this we are encouraging hypertension patients not to default or skip taking their medications.

People people people
We noticing with deep concern an increase in the number of people who are discontinuing their hypertension(BP) drugs
-mainly because of cost reasons.
-some say I only take when I feel a headache and know that my BP has raised
-others just say I don't like taking tablets
It is so unfortunate that when High blood pressure is destroying your internal organs you won't feel it, what we only see is the end result, you might think that you are OK but in the process destroying yourselves, even if you resume tablets, the damage you would have done cannot be corrected easily.
If you or your relative or your friend is taking chronic tablets please tell them to take every day, it is for the greater good

According to an article published by Herald newspaper, 30% of the young population is reported to be abusing crystal m**h, which is commonly referred to as mutoriro, gukafella, ice or glass in the streets.

Crystal m**h scientifically known as m**hamphetamine is an illegal drug which is
in the same class as co***ne and other powerful street drugs.It is used for its powerful euphoric effects.People take it by mouth,through snorting it (inhaling through the nose), smoking it or injecting it with a needle.

Crystal m**hamphetamine use is associated with serious health problems. The drug can cause rapid heart rate, increased blood pressure, and damage to the small blood vessels in the brain which can lead to stroke and memory loss. Chronic use of the drug can result in heart damage . Overdoses can cause hyperthermia (elevated body temperature),convulsions and death.

A person who use crystal m**hamphetamine may also have episodes of violent behavior, paranoia, anxiety, confusion, decreased appetite and insomnia. The drug can cause psychotic symptoms that persist for months or years after an individual has stopped using the drug.

On the 9th of May 2021, one of our pillars and senior employees left us to be with the Lord. Ironically this happened on Mother’s day, a day she had been passionate about over the years, pushing management to source and buy merchandise for mothers. As a mother, naturally her choices weren’t wrong either as the stocks will fly off our shelves .She will wrap the various merchandise with a smile despite all the problems she will be shouldering. Your energy in these activities will be greatly missed by our family, at QV Pharmacies.
Your infectious hard work, hard talk, hard biting questions, hard scenarios and comparisons, and mature compromises on various sticking points in the workers committee and other meetings are other key attributes, you have left a void on.
Sinikiwe started in loss control moved to the till operator duties following the multi skilling exercise, which later propelled her to the cosmetics department, a position she held until her untimely and shocking death. I know we all have heavy hearts, are heartbroken, shocked, in pain, but must also be in total submission to the Will of God on his timing.

To the remaining children, find solace and comfort from the friends, neighbours, colleagues, and the excellent life foundation your mother taught, emphasized and left in you, and through you for us to always remember, Sinikiwe Gore. You have sadly lost a mother, but, in all of us you have found a ‘’mother’’ through our association with Sinikiwe.
Sinikiwe Gore, may you rest in eternal peace. You fought your race with grace and energy. Rest in beauty. We shall dearly miss you.
