Respiratory Problems

There are many different causes of respiratory/breathing problems, most of which may go undiagnosed, leading to long-term health complications. It is important to have regular check-ups and our pharmacists are available for that.

Common diseases that can lead to breathing problems are asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and respiratory tract infections. Many of these breathing problems can stay with you for the majority of your lifetime. Therefore, it is very important to get the proper care to ensure that such issues do not get worse.

Our pharmacists are trained to properly diagnose and manage your respiratory conditions. With the help of testing devices, such as spirometry tests and streptococcus tests, we can provide the necessary care and management of these conditions.

A guide is never a substitute for asking. If something here does not match what you were told, phone the pharmacy that filled your prescription — 705-945-8465 for Merrett’s, 705-759-5578 for Group Health Centre.
