| Advice - Pharmacist's Services
National Pharmacies is staffed by highly trained and qualified professionals
who are available 7 days a week to meet your health care needs and enquiries.
To date these services have been available from our network of pharmacies and
chemists in Australia. As a first option we encourage our customers to visit our
pharmacies for face-to-face consultation. However, we are now pleased to offer
a range of services "Over the Net". National Pharmacies believes that our
customers are entitled to the same high quality pharmaceutical care irrespective
of whether the service is provided "online" or face-to-face in our pharmacies. As
with all professional pharmacy services, online pharmacy services must comply
with current State and Federal legislative requirements.
Role of a Pharmacist
| Pharmacists, or Chemists, in Australia are highly trained professionals
able to assist you with your enquiries on medicines and other health care issues.
To assist our pharmacist in providing you with the best comprehensive information/advice
service you will be asked to provide |
| | some details of your drug therapy and
condition. Our pharmacist will then be in a much better position to give you professional
advice or refer you to another appropriate health care professional. |
Over the counter medicines Pharmacy
Medicine (S2) A range of medicines is available using our
website service. The number of medicines is being expanded and updated continuously
for your convenience. These products are listed in red within the pharmacy shop
and all are found within the relevant Departments and Categories. Our pharmacist
may contact you if they have any concern regarding your order. This includes monitoring
of quantities ordered. Pharmacist only
Medicine (S3) South Australian legislation dictates that
products which are labelled "Pharmacist Only Medicine" requires a pharmacist to
be involved in the supply. This ensures that you the customer will receive the
correct product for your individual requirements. This provision also allows Pharmacists
to decline supply of these medicines if deemed necessary. For
the safety and optimum health care of customers using this Website, National Pharmacies
may require further information from you to ensure the quality use of medicines. Medicines
within these categories are printed in red in the shop and will be highlighted
with an advice screen when you click the "Checkout" icon. Customers are
encouraged to read all product information provided with each medicine before
using. If in any doubt regarding self-treatment please do not hesitate to contact
your doctor or pharmacist. Privacy National

to the highest ethical and professional standards. All data transmission
