Travellers Diarrhoea
Travellers’ diarrhoea can occur due to exposure to contaminants in our food and water. Here are our pharmacist’s top tips for dealing with traveller’s diarrhoea on your holiday this year. l Prevention is key, see your pharmacist for advice on pre-biotics and pro-biotics that can assist in protecting your gut from nasty bugs. l The first choice for holiday goers experiencing diarrhoea is oral re-hydration solution. Ask your pharmacist about dosing to prevent dehydration. l Ask your pharmacist about medicines that can reduce the frequency of bowel movements l If symptoms are severe and/or last for longer than 2 days for adults- seek medical care. l See your GP before you travel to talk about prescription medication options prior to your holiday.
Ask your Advantage pharmacist for more advice on how to keep your gut healthy during the holidays!

Suncare Make sure you’re well prepared for summer, with safe play in the sun. There are common myths about sun protection. Let’s clear this up once and for all!
l Sun damage can still occur on cloudy, windy or cool days. And there’s no such thing as a ‘windburn’! l You still need to put sunscreen underneath your regular skin care or cosmetics with SPF, especially if you will be out in the sun for a while. l If you are naturally tanned or have olive skin, you can still get sun damage so make sure you get some sun protection. l Generally, you don’t need long exposure to the sun to get enough Vitamin D. Most people will get enough Vitamin D from just doing everyday tasks, in and out of the house. So, what’s so bad about the sun? Well, it’s the Ultraviolet (UV) radiation that is the invisible killer and increases your risk of developing skin cancer. This summer, make sure you slip, slop, slap, seek, slide! And download the SunSmart app to keep track of the UV index. Ask your Advantage pharmacist for more advice on being SunSmart and having fun in the sun this summer!
