Need emergency contraception? We are here to help.

At Capital Chemist Dapto we can provide emergency contraception after you speak to a pharmacist. We understand that talking about your sexual health can be uncomfortable, so our pharmacists will chat with you in a consulting room or private place where others cannot overhear. If you would prefer to speak to a particular pharmacist you are most comfortable with, we try our best to accommodate these requests too.

If you have any questions or concerns, our team is always more than happy to help- anytime- in person, on the phone or online. No appointment is needed for this type of assistance - ever. Emergency contraception is time-sensitive so don't hesitate to get in touch with your local pharmacist today.

Capital Chemist Dapto are pleased to help support patients through our New Medicine Service (NMS). As part of the service, our pharmacists will support patients on new medicines as they start, and over the first few weeks to ensure our patients are supported to use the medicine safely and to best effect. Discussions will take place in a private consultation area and should only take 10 minutes or so. The service is free. Depending upon the medicine, we might contact you after a couple of weeks to check that things are still going OK. If you’re starting a new medicine talk to your friendly pharmacist today.

Do you start sneezing the moment you step outside?
You may have seasonal allergies.
While Autumn is a beautiful time of year, it also brings with it dust pollens and mould spores, found in wet leaves and soil, which can have you grabbing tissues by the handful. To help prevent allergies in autumn here are a few things you can do around your home.
• Vacuum more often in the cooler months when pets are indoors more
• Mould and leaves can stick to shoes and coats easily so remove them before entering the house
• Clean heater filters regularly
• Clean your chimney or replace a fire screen with a fire door
• If you have a fireplace, only bring in enough wood for what you plan to use a night. Store the rest in a dry space outdoors.
• Clean blankets and warmer clothes before storing them away to prevent mould and dust.
For advice to help you manage symptoms of seasonal allergies, talk to your friendly Capital Chemist Dapto pharmacist today.

Sunglasses - Not just a fashion accessory, but a vital part of sun protection especially if you work outside often
SPF 50+ Sunscreen - For all the bits you can’t physically cover Be ready every day by following these tips every time you step outside.

Do you know how to tell if your child has threadworms? Here's what to look out for
• itchy bottom, especially at night
• reduced appetite
• feeling mildly unwell
• redness or irritation of the perianal region, usually with evidence of scratching
• adult worms can sometimes be seen in the faeces, and eggs may be seen clinging to the skin around the a**s
• irritability and behavioural changes.
How can worms be treated?
Treatment usually involves a single dose of medicine for the infected person and each family member. You can buy threadworm treatment over the counter at Capital Chemist Dapto, without a prescription. It is not necessary to treat children on a regular basis, just in case they have worms, but if one member of the family has them, its best for all to be treated to avoid re-infestation.
To prevent reinfection, wash bodies, bedding, and sleepwear thoroughly in hot water, and use an antiseptic cleaning of toilet seats, taps, and door handles.
Remember, to wash your hands well to minimise the chances of sharing worms!
Grab a worming treatment from your friendly Capital Chemist Dapto pharmacist to treat the whole family. Consult your pharmacist if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before taking worming medicine.
