Children can get up to 12 colds a year, while adults average two to four.
Where would we be without our pharmacists? It’s time to thank those friendly workers who keep us healthy throughout the year. Get ready to celebrate National Pharmacist Day on January 12.
The day focuses on the importance of pharmacists, and it honors how much they impact our health and well-being.
The #APharmacistIs campaign, launched just two years ago, links both photos (and words of thanks) to those who help us with our meds and so much more.
