With all the busy construction happening around town lately, plus windy weather and blooming plants, we’ve been seeing a rise in allergy symptoms 🤧

If you’ve noticed more sneezing, itchy eyes, or congestion - dust, pollen, and debris can all be common triggers 🌬🍃

If you’re unsure which antihistamine is right for you, pop in and have a chat with our team—we’re here to help find the best option for you.

Q: What are antihistamines and how do they work?
💡 Antihistamines help reduce allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and hives by blocking histamine (a chemical your body releases during an allergic reaction).

Q: Are there different types?
💡 Yes! Some cause drowsiness (first-generation) while newer types are less sedating (second-generation). Your Pharmacist can help you choose the right one.

Q: Can I take them long-term?
💡 Some antihistamines are suitable for daily use, but always follow advice from your Pharmacist.

💙 Our Pharmacists can guide you on which antihistamine is right for you, safe dosing, and how to manage allergy symptoms effectively. Visit us here 👉 https://pharmacistadvice.com.au/store-locator/

Some fun facts! 📋 How often do you change your toothbrush? 👀🦷🪥

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1G6KEeZ7mv/

😁 Keeping your toothbrush fresh is key to a healthy smile! Here’s when to swap it out:

📅 Every 3 months – worn bristles don’t clean effectively
🤧 After illness – prevent re-infection from germs
🪥 Choose soft-bristle brushes – gentle on gums and enamel
💊 Check your pharmacy – we have a range of toothbrushes, replacements, and oral care products

Our pharmacists are here to answer questions and recommend the right oral care solutions for you and your family.

While continuing to serve our community, we’ve been busy cleaning up a lot of renovation dust, reorganising and restocking every shelf to get everything back in place.

We’re so proud of our team for pulling everything back together, and grateful for all the hard work from the renovation crew 👏

Now that the dust has (mostly 😅) settled, here are some fun before & afters!

Thank you for your patience and support while we worked away behind the scenes 💚

Our Toogoom Pharmacy renovation is really starting to come together and we’re getting very close to the finish line! 🙌

The new layout is taking shape, the dispensary is looking fantastic, and we can’t wait for you to see the progress in person. There’s been a lot happening behind the scenes, all with the goal of creating a more modern, comfortable space and an even better experience for our community.

Thank you so much for your patience and support during the renovation — we’re so excited to share the finished result with you very soon! 💙
