Preventive health care at your pharmacy
Looking after one’s health does not begin with the first symptoms; it begins with knowing the values that matter, with a medicine cabinet that can be relied upon when it is needed, and with a vaccination record that has been reviewed by a professional. It is in this spirit that we offer personal and confidential advice at Heinrichstraße 3, between the city centre and the university.

Our approach
At our counter you are advised by qualified pharmacists who offer you not only tested original medicines but, above all, a recommendation that reflects your personal circumstances. We take every concern seriously, whether large or small, for the pharmacy has always been guided by a single idea: to be a meeting place for preventive health care.
Preventive care at the pharmacy is intended to complement medical care, not to replace it. Should a value prove conspicuous, we therefore record the result in a form that you can present to your doctor. In an emergency, please call the emergency number 144 or the health hotline 1450.

Does preventive care at the pharmacy replace a visit to the doctor?
No. We measure, check and advise, but this does not replace a medical diagnosis. In an emergency, please call the emergency number 144 or the health hotline 1450.
Can I have my blood pressure measured free of charge?
Yes, we measure blood pressure free of charge and without an appointment at Heinrichstraße 3, 8010 Graz. A single measurement serves as a guide and does not replace a diagnosis.
Do you also put together travel health kits?
Yes, we assemble travel health kits tailored to your destination, the length of your journey and your fellow travellers, and take the opportunity to check your vaccination record at the same time.
What should I do with expired medicines?
We are happy to accept medicines that are no longer needed or have expired and to dispose of them properly and free of charge, and handing them in combines well with a medicine cabinet check.
