MedsChecks and
Diabetes MedsChecks
Supporting Safer, More Effective Use of Your Medicines.
At our pharmacy, we offer MedsCheck and Diabetes MedsCheck services to help you gain a better understanding of your medications and health conditions. These services are designed to empower you to use your medicines correctly, reduce risks, and feel more confident about your treatment.
What is a MedsCheck?
A MedsCheck is a free, personalised consultation with one of our pharmacists. It’s ideal for patients who are:
// Taking five or more prescription medications
// Recently discharged from hospital with changes to their medicines
// At risk of medicine-related problems
During a MedsCheck, our pharmacist will review all your medications, address any questions or concerns, and provide practical advice to help you get the most from your treatment. We can also help identify any interactions or side effects you might not be aware of.
What is Diabetes MedsChecks?
If you’re living with type 2 diabetes, you may also be eligible for a Diabetes MedsCheck. This service focuses specifically on:
// Diabetes medications and blood glucose monitoring
// Lifestyle management and self-care strategies
// Preventing complications and improving health outcomes
It’s a valuable opportunity to ask questions and receive personalised support for managing diabetes effectively.
