HMRs are designed to help you manage your medicines so you can get better results and avoid side effects.

  Weight Loss
The trained staff at YVP are available and keen to help you lose weight and acheive your goals.

We support the OPTIFAST WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM.
OPTIFASTvlcd (very low calorie diet) products are nutritionally complete and satisfying. Therefore the OPTIFAST products can be used as a total food replacement program for accelerated weight loss.

The OPTIFAST program is acknowledged by the National and Medical Research Council and has had over 80 clinical publications. It is the no.1 Very Low Calorie Diet program recommended by healthcare professionals since 1974, including doctors and hospitals.

The OPTIFAST Program offers FREE LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP and excellent online support.

There is a variety of products to choose from and great recipes to try!!!

Many other "weight loss programmes" have emerged in the last few years. Often the differences between these and the OPTIFAST vlcd are:-
  - They are not nutritionally complete (may require nutrition from other sources)
  - Have had no clinical studies
  - Contain up to 50% sugar
  - Costly (eg. joining fees, booklets & maintenance programs)
  - No free website support.

Other products available to enhance weight loss include include Blackmores Metabolism Advantage, Blackmores Weight-Loss Accelerate and Blackmores Sugar Balance. These products may assist you to maintain your weight loss program and also have other benefits. Come in and chat to the friendly staff at Yeronga Village Pharmacy to find out which products most suit you.

The staff at YVP are trained to assist you to quit smoking. We will discuss your addiction with you to find the best solution. Firstly, you will need to make the decision to quit.

There is a range of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) products available. These include patches, lozenges and chewing gum in varying strengths. NRT can help ease nicotine withdrawal symptoms such as cravings and mood changes. The best NRT product for you depends on your circumstances. We will help you in selecting the best product for you.
