Cases of strep throat have peaked in recent months. Strep throat is caused by a bacteria and is treatable, but can be serious for young children, older adults and people who have a weak immune system.

Symptoms of strep throat can include:

Severe sore throat that comes on suddenly
Fever
Painful swallowing
Tiny red spots on back of the throat or roof of your mouth

Everyone experiences spikes in their blood pressure at times, but usually only for short periods, like during exercise or a stressful situation. It becomes a problem when blood pressure stays higher than normal over time.

Healthy lifestyle habits including eating a balanced diet, managing stress, and getting enough physical activity, can help to reduce your chance of developing high blood pressure.

Many people can meet their nutrient needs through diet alone, but some may benefit from a vitamin or mineral supplement.

People on restrictive diets, or with certain stomach conditions that prevent important nutrients from being absorbed, for example, might not be meeting all their nutritional needs through food. In these cases, a supplement may help.

Ask our pharmacist for advice on which supplements could be right for you.

Every summer, too many people are killed or injured in preventable water-related accidents. Keep your family safe at the beach, pool, and cottage this season with these tips:

Always watch children actively, even if they can swim
Avoid diving in home pools; enter feet first
Be cautious about swimming in currents – even strong swimmers can get caught up
Swimming skills alone aren’t always enough to keep you safe, or to save a life. Learn more about water safety from the Canadian Red Cross:

Summer vacation is calling! But if you’re headed on a far-flung holiday, you should make sure you’re up to date on your travel vaccines.

Depending on where you are travelling, you could be at risk for many vaccine preventable illnesses. For many places, the immunizations you might need could include protection for hepatitis A, travellers’ diarrhea, and meningitis.

Pollinators like bees are vital to growing the foods we need, and most will ignore us if we leave them alone.

But do you know what to do when you or someone with you has been stung by a bee or wasp?

For most people, a sting is just painful. Dropping into the pharmacy for pain medications or an antihistamine can do the trick!

But for a few, it can be life-threatening. You may not know you're one of them until after you've been stung. A severe allergic reaction to bee stings (anaphylaxis) requires emergency treatment.

Talk with us to know the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis, and what you can do to protect you and your family.
