Your pharmacist is trained and authorized to assess and prescribe medications for minor ailments and contraception. Minor ailments are health conditions that can be managed with minimal treatment. If you are experiencing a skin rash, fungal infection, heartburn, seasonal allergies, shingles, urinary tract infections (UTIs), or a vaginal yeast infection, you can visit your pharmacist for a free assessment. After the assessment, your pharmacist may prescribe medication or refer you to another healthcare provider. The next time you have a minor health issue, consider booking an appointment with your pharmacist for a free assessment.
