Order your prescription early

It's a busy time for everyone, including your pharmacists.

To make sure you have enough medicine to last through the bank holidays, please order your prescription two weeks before you run out.

Don't get caught short.

Get vaccinated

If you're eligible, we encourage you to get your Flu and COVID-19 vaccinations as soon as possible. Help yourself fight off illness and keep it from spreading to your family members over the festive season. You can get yours at Prestwich Pharmacy, just walk-in!

Stock up

Tis the season of heartburn and hangovers, so make sure you've got some paracetamol, ibuprofen and heartburn/indigestion medicine in stock.

Why not take an inventory of your first aid kit while you're at it and restock the items you may have used up throughout the year; such as plasters, antiseptic and bandages.

Be prepared for whatever 2024 throws your way!

Check-in with loved ones

Take a minute... can you think of anyone in your life who might be feeling low or lonely?

Give them a call or nip round for a cuppa, you may just make their day!

For them, it could be their highlight of the season.

Take time for you

Give yourself the gift of self-care this Christmas.

It can be a stressful time, but it's important not to burn yourself out in the pursuit of happiness for everyone around you. Take some time to relax and take care of your needs, even if it's as simple as a bath or an hour to read a book. You matter.
