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 and that medicines should be stored as directed and kept from children. A village pharmacy is often the nearest health service, so ask which vaccinations and checks it provides. Check opening hours before you go.
For anyone in Waimauku and the surrounding district, Waimauku Pharmacy Silver Fern on Factory Road is a local place for prescriptions and health advice.
