Happy Friday, Yelm! 🌞
At Tim’s Pharmacy & Gift Shop, we love finding ways to save paper while still making sure you have all the info you need about your medications.

💊 When you pick up your prescription(s), look for the QR code at the bottom of your receipt. Scan it to watch a quick video explaining your medication!
👩‍⚕️ We’re always here to answer your questions in person, but if it’s after hours or you’d like to learn more from home, this is an easy and helpful tool.

🤷‍♀️ Not sure how to scan a QR code? You’re not alone! 😉 Just open your phone’s camera, point it at the code, and tap the link that pops up. It’s that easy!

Of course, we always have printed information available too, but we’re proud to support paperless options whenever we can. 🌿

Did you know many cough & cold medications contain the same active ingredients? 🤔🤔
It’s super easy to accidentally take too much when combining products, especially those with acetaminophen. Always check the active ingredients on the back of the product!!!

Here’s what to look for on the Drug Facts label:

1️⃣ Active Ingredient: the main medicine treating your symptoms
2️⃣ Uses: what it helps with
3️⃣ Warnings: safety info, interactions, and when NOT to use
4️⃣ Directions: how much & how often to take
5️⃣ Other Info & Inactive Ingredients: for storage + allergy considerations

👉 Reading your labels can prevent accidental overdoses and keep you feeling better, faster.
If you ever have questions about combining meds, dosage, or what’s safe, ask one of our friendly pharmacists. We’re here to help! 💙💊

Stay safe and stay well!
