A good pharmacy does much more than hand over prescriptions. Pharmacists can explain how and when to take a medicine, check that it is safe alongside others you take and suggest an over-the-counter option for minor ailments, such as coughs, rashes or aches. In New Zealand, most prescription medicines are subsidised, so ask whether a cheaper brand is available and whether repeat prescriptions can be arranged. Regulars know that dropping a prescription in early in the day helps it be ready when you return, that a pharmacist is a free source of advice before a doctor's visit, that medicines should be stored as directed and kept from children and that some pharmacies also provide flu vaccinations and health checks, so it is worth asking. A pharmacy in a growing residential and shopping area can be busy at lunchtime and after work, so a quiet mid-morning visit is easier. Check opening hours before you go, especially on weekends.
