“A DAA packaging service was recommended to me by David, the Pharmacist. He thought I would benefit from it, and he was right. I am very grateful to him. It means that all my tablets are organized and I know when and what time to take them. No more missed medication!”

“My father in law has a medication pack made up for him at the pharmacy. He first started using it after he had bypass surgery and was then on a large amount of tablets….It has been marvellous for him and he doesn't need to worry and I don't need to worry. If there is a change to his medication the Doctor just faxes the pharmacy and they organise the new tablets. I would recommend it to everyone. It saved his life!”
