FAQs

  • Do I have to treat my whole family for worms?

    Yes, you do. Worms can often be symptomless which means you have them without knowing it. Therefore, if one member of the family has them, it is likely that others may too. Worm the entire family. Talk to your Pharmacist for the most appropriate worming medication for your family.

  • How do I know if I am allergic to a medication?

    Basically, anything you experience which is "different" to normal after beginning a new medication can be an allergic reaction. Skin rashes are the most common allergic reaction. Some reactions can be as severe as to lead to difficulty breathing. If you experience any symptoms that worry you after beginning new medications or even if you begin to experience something different with an established medication - talk to your doctor immediately.

  • Why don't antibiotics help with a cold or flu?

    Usually, the flu is caused by a virus. Viruses cannot be treated by antibiotics. Only infections caused by bacteria can be treated by antibiotics. If antibiotics are used when there is no infection, there is no benefit to the patient. This is also why bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics which mean they are not as effective anymore.

  • What eye drops can I or can't I use with contact lenses?

    Eye drops contain preservatives and some preservatives aren't compatible with contact lenses. Check with your Pharmacist. When using eye drops, remove contact lenses first and do not replace for a least 15 minutes. Eye drops that are in single dose packs are alright as they do not contain preservatives.

  • How do I dispose of out of date or unwanted medication?

    Simply bring them to your local UFS Medical and we will ensure they are disposed of safely.

  • What do I need in a first aid kit?

    Recommended items: Antiseptic or swabs, Cotton buds, Band-Aids, Tweezers, Saline, Splinter probe, Gauze swabs, Dressing strips, Eye bath, Combine pieces, Paper tape, Itch cream, Emergency blanket, Triangular bandage (x2), Safety pins, Scissors, Melolin or similar non-stick dressing, Eye pads, Disposable gloves, Compression bandage, Hot/ cold pack.

  • Is the generic brand exactly the same?

    Pharmacists cannot dispense a generic medication if it is not what's called "flagged" as being proven the same as the medication you have been prescribed. Also, if your doctor does not wish you to have the generic product, they will indicate this on your prescription.

  • What is the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) Safety Net?

    The PBS Safety Net is designed to assist families manage the cost of prescription medication. The scheme works by tallying the amount you and your dependants spends on PBS medication throughout the year. Once you have reached the threshold the Commonwealth Government then subsidise the cost you're required to pay for PBS medication for the remainder of that year.

  • Why can't I take more than 8 Panadol a day?

    If you are taking regular pain-relieving medication talk to your doctor or Pharmacist to see if what you're taking is the best for your symptoms.

  • Why do I need to show my Medicare card each time?

    As you are probably aware, the government requires us to record your Medicare card number before dispensing a prescription as a pharmaceutical benefit.
