Reliable advice in your pharmacy

Date:

Inform your doctor or pharmacist about the effect and side effects! There is hardly anyone who does not know this phrase. Regardless of whether it is prescription or over-the-counter, virtually every drug has side effects and interactions. No effect without side effects. That is precisely why personal and professional advice in the pharmacy is an indispensable condition for medication. More than 7,000 pharmacists are available 24 hours a day in more than 1,450 pharmacies throughout Austria.

A visit to the pharmacy ensures that your medication works optimally and is as compatible as possible with all other medications.

6,000 different medicines in stock

And the knowledge of the experts is impressive: on average, 6,000 different medications are stored in a pharmacy to ensure quick help for those affected. For these medications to work, customers must follow certain rules. These rules concern, on the one hand, the correct and regular use of medicines, and on the other hand, the knowledge of possible side effects and interactions with these medicines.

There are no stupid questions

Honesty is essential for correct advice about the Tara. When it comes to the effect of medications, it always plays a role which other medications are used or which side effects may occur more often due to the individual’s physical condition. Only if the pharmacist knows ‘everything’ can customers take their medications successfully and, if possible, without unwanted side effects. Conversely, those affected are of course always welcome in the pharmacy if ambiguities or uncertainties arise when taking the medicine – it is about their own health, there are no “stupid” questions. It is not always clear to everyone that certain foods are incompatible with certain medications.

Successful medication therapy not only helps those affected themselves, but also the entire healthcare system. According to studies, up to 20 percent of all hospital stays can be attributed to not taking medication or taking it incorrectly. If you receive personal advice at the pharmacy and stick to it, you can sometimes save yourself a trip to a hospital and save the general public the costs that arise as a result.

Therefore: if you have any questions about your medication: your local pharmacy will help you reliably, quickly and reliably!
