Help and advise for a healthier life

‘Prevention is better than cure’, as the old saying goes, and investing in a healthy lifestyle can really pay huge dividends as we get older.

Maintaining a healthy weight, keeping an eye on blood pressure and not smoking are just some of the key measures within our control. Keeping mobile and regularly exercising is also really important.

Your Pharmacist at Horgan’s is here to help and advise you on any medicine or medical related questions you may have.

Sometimes, however, despite our best efforts, we do get sick. Seeking help early when symptoms are experienced makes a lot of sense. If medicines are prescribed, understanding what each medicine is for and how to take it properly is vital. Always ask your Pharmacist if you are unclear on anything.

Newly diagnosed conditions can be a source of worry and distress to both the patient and the carer / family members but modern medicine can now help people in ways that were not possible even one generation ago. Working with your Doctor and Pharmacist, following the directions that come with any prescribed medicines and taking the appropriate lifestyle advice all work together to give you the best chance of dealing with any condition.

At Horgan’s, we are committed to providing a professional, discrete and caring service. Remember too, a private Consultation Room is available for any sensitive or private queries. We are here to help, just ask…
