Pharmacists Top 10 Tips for Wellness

Health Matters is a weekly radio show sponsored by the Medicine Center Pharmacy on WHBC 1480 AM in Canton, Ohio. This episode pharmacists Brad White and Paul White discuss our Top 10 Tips for Wellness.   

 

Our First  Tip is – GET VACCINATED!  You can’t turn on the news today without listening to a story about covid vaccinations, and our #1 Tip is Stay immunized – not just the covid vaccine, but all recommended vaccines.   

Tip #2 – know your numbers!  Know your blood pressure, cholesterol, blood glucose, and A1C numbers. We also offer low cost lab tests for Thyroid TSH and Vitamin D levels.

Tip #3 – Support Your Immune System!  A quality multivitamin like Active Life Nutrient Capsules is a great place to start. Supporting your immune system with Vitamin D and Immunity Power are basic nutritional tools you can use to support your immune system.

Tip #4 Limit Exposure – or as we hear on the news, limit contacts!  Staying away from others who may be sick is important and we to explain how easy we can make that for you! Medicine Center Pharmacy offers our mobile app, curbside service, drive up window service and home delivery at your convenience.

Tip #5 – Follow the doctor’s directions!  If you are like me, you have the best intentions when it comes to following the doctors directions – but sometimes our memory plays tricks on us and we think we took our medicine – but did we?  Check out our Free Easy Dose Pack Service to simplify your medication organization.

Tip #6 – Manage your chronic conditions.  Whether its high blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol or other conditions, managing them to stay in line with your physician’s recommendations is critical.  Check out our low cost lab test services and our low cost Easy Max Diabetes Kit.

Tip #7 – Education – you’ve heard the expression, knowledge is power.  Well its true when it comes to maintaining good health!  When it comes to pharmacy that means knowing what medications you take, what they look like, and what condition they are treating. Check out our recent and upcoming educational programs.

Tip #8 – Know your Pharmacist!  Do you know your pharmacist by name?  We think it is important to know our customers by name and develop a relationship so that you feel free to call anytime and ask for your pharmacist to discuss any questions or concerns you may have.  

Tip #9 – Make it affordable!  We all know health care and prescriptions can be expensive – but you may not know that sometimes we can help make it affordable. Check out our Loyalty Program or contact us at the pharmacy for a one on one consultation to review your medications.

Tip #10 Enjoy life!  We hope that making life easier at the pharmacy will contribute to your overall happiness and well being!  We appreciate you and wish you good health today and everyday!
