Getting support
 
While your GP would usually be your first port of call for your health concerns, there are also a number of people and groups out there who can make a huge difference. They are able to give you real help when you need it – and help you to live your life in the best possible health. 
 
How your pharmacist can help 
Your pharmacist can give you important information and advice about the medicines you may be prescribed. He or she should also be able to alert you to any problems when taking them in combination with other medicines.
