Pharmicist Zine

Want to know more about your Medirite Pharmacist? In honour of Pharmacist Month, we asked one of our amazing pharmacists, Zine, what they love most about  their  job and what questions customers usually do not ask? 

1. What do you appreciate most about being a Medirite Pharmacist?

Having an opportunity to be able to learn, develop, and progress in a career I am passionate about.

Being given an opportunity or platform to manage a successful pharmacy that requires sound financial planning and staff management. These include tracking the pharmacy performance against daily, and monthly budgets to identify areas for improvement.

Being given an opportunity to provide exceptional customer service, patient care and to train pharmacy personnel to provide thorough medication therapy to optimise patient outcomes and address medication-related issues.

2. In your view, what questions do you think customers do not usually ask a pharmacist?

These are the questions that a pharmacist should be able to answer:

• What should I do if I forget to take my medication? 
• Are there any kind of tools that you might suggest so that I remain compliant?
• I am taking multiple medication, what kind of advice would you provide so that I remain compliant?
• Could this new or current medication interact with my multivitamin & supplements?
• What kind of food should I avoid or decrease or increase my consumption of while I am taking this medication?
