Flu Protection Made Easy! 🛡️

There’s nothing more important than keeping our little ones healthy, especially as we head into flu season. I recently gave my boys their nasal mist flu vaccine right here at the pharmacy, and it was a breeze. No needles, no tears, no fuss!

We are excited to share that we now have the FluMist nasal mist vaccines in stock. Best of all, they are FREE for all children aged 2 to 4 years old.

Stop by Forbutts Pharmacy to get your little ones protected. It’s quick, easy, and painless!

Choosing the right sunscreen for you ☀️

Adventure awaits but don’t leave your sun protection behind. Sunscreen should always be at the top of your packing list. In Australia, where UV levels are among the highest in the world, sunscreen is an important part of daily sun protection.

Look for sunscreens labelled broad spectrum, which help protect against:
👉UVA rays – cause ageing and wrinkles
👉UVB rays cause sunburn and increase cancer risk

SPF: Go High 🧴
👉SPF 30 blocks around 96.7% of UVB rays
👉SPF 50+ blocks about 98% of UVB rays

Match Your Activity 🏖️
✅Beach days & Bushwalks: Use water-resistant sunscreen and reapply after swimming or sweating.
✅Active days: Choose sweat-resistant protection
✅Sensitive Skin: Go for fragrance-free or mineral formulas
✅Kids: Pick gentle, water-resistant options.

Sunscreen works best when used with other sun protection measures such as protective clothing, hats and shade.

Oops, got a sunburn!? Here’s how to help your skin.

We all love the sunshine, but sometimes it can leave your skin red and sore. If you’ve got a bit of sunburn, try these simple tips:

💧 Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated
🧴 Use after-sun lotion or aloe vera to soothe your skin
❄️ Cool your skin down with a damp cloth or a gentle shower
🛑 Avoid more sun until your skin heals

If your sunburn is severe or you feel unwell, talk to a healthcare professional or visit your local pharmacy.

And remember — slip on some shade, slap on sunscreen, and wear protective clothes to stay safe in the sun!
