Minoxidil has the strongest evidence base for pattern hair loss in both men and women. You need to give it at least 3 to 4 months and you have to keep using it to maintain the effect. Biotin only helps if you're genuinely deficient, which is uncommon. Most people taking it won't see meaningful change.

Locking up a pharmacy is nothing like locking up any other shop. End of day means balancing the controlled drug register. Every Schedule 8 medication counted, logged, and reconciled. Temperature logs recorded again. Scripts verified. Anything needing follow-up flagged for tomorrow so nothing falls through the gap. There's a lot of accountability that happens after the last customer leaves. Most people never see it. But it's there every single night.

Here's what actually happens when you take collagen orally. Your gut breaks it down into amino acids just like any other protein you eat. It does not travel to your skin intact. But the effect size is modest and if your protein intake is already adequate an expensive collagen powder is unlikely to change much.

Google can tell you what a medication is. What it cannot tell you is whether it's right for you given your history, your other medications, your kidney function, your other conditions, your lifestyle. No algorithm accounts for all of that. We do. When you talk to a pharmacist you're getting someone who can look at your actual situation and give you advice that fits it.

Melatonin doesn't put you to sleep. In Australia it's over the counter for adults over 55 and prescription for everyone else. Ashwagandha has promising early data for sleep driven by stress. Valerian has mixed results but some people do report real improvement.

Some products in a pharmacy carry age restrictions, and they're not always the ones you'd expect. Ni****ne replacement, emergency contraceptives, pseudoephedrine-based cold and flu tablets. If we ask a few extra questions, it's not to embarrass you, it's because some of these carry real risk for younger people.
Our job is making sure the right thing goes home with the right person. Sometimes that's a few more questions. Sometimes it's asking someone to come back with a parent. Either way, we're happy to help.

Fibre every single day. Oats, legumes, vegetables, that's what good bacteria feed on. A probiotic won't work if the fibre isn't there in your diet first.

If you do need a probiotic, make sure it's the right one, different strains do completely different things in your body.

Come in and have a chat with us and we'll help you select the one for you.

If you're on five or more medications you may be eligible for a free medication review. A proper one-on-one with a pharmacist where we go through everything you're taking, what it's actually for, how you're taking it, whether anything is interacting, and whether you still genuinely need everything on that list. Fully covered through Medicare for eligible patients. Most people have never heard of it. Come and ask us.

The key word is consistently. Taking vitamin C on a daily basis is what actually helps. If you already feel a cold coming on, a higher dose for a short period can still help reduce the severity and length of it. One of the biggest misconceptions though is that more is always better. Vitamin C is water soluble, so there's only so much your body can use before the rest is simply flushed out.

Someone came in last week absolutely certain they had something serious. Two hours on Google. It was hayfever. Google isn't wrong exactly, but it has no idea who you are, your history, your medications, or that you just moved somewhere with a lot of grass. It gives you every possibility and the scary ones always stick. We ask the questions Google never asks. We look at the full picture. Come see us first. You'll leave with a real answer, not a spiral.
