Simple Stress Busters for Busy Professionals Stress is a constant struggle for busy professionals, but especially during the holidays, this can reach a tipping point. Here are some easy stress-busting tips to try at work, as we approach the holiday season:

1. Master the 30 second Deep Breathing TechniqueA simple deep breathing exercise can make a big difference in being able to tackle stressful situations that arise at work. 30 seconds is all you need to reduce your stress in the moment, think clearer, and process more efficiently. Stop, Breathe, then Respond.

2. Set a Timer Every Hour for a Mini-RefresherWhen you’re working away at your desk or computer, the time can fly by, and before you know it you’ve been sitting for hours on end. Try setting a timer every hour and take a 2-5 minute breather from your desk. Use this time to take a quick walk around the office, get a drink of water, do some deep breathing, or use the washroom. Make this an hourly habit and notice huge improvements to your overall productivity for the day!

3. Schedule Your BreaksBlock off time in your schedule for lunch, and spend a few minutes enjoying a meal away from your desk and computer. Get outside the building to breathe in fresh air (weather permitting) to rejuvenate your body and mind before tackling the rest of your work day. Bonus: invite a work friend along for this standing lunch – this will increase your likelihood of staying accountable to your break!

Issue: Pediatric Medication Challenge Lucas, a 3 three old, has an ear infection and is prescribed Amoxicillin by his pediatrician. To his parents’ dismay, Lucas refuses to take his medication and even resorts to throwing up when forced. His parents are very concerned and speak to Behzad, their local Hooper’s pharmacist.

Solution: Compounded Prescription Suppositories Behzad explains to Lucas’ parents that he can take the antibiotic and put it into a form that the patient will not have to swallow. Amoxicillin suppositories are prepared according to the doctor’s instructions.

Lucas is taken home and administered his medication. A few days later, Behzad receives a phone call to let him know that the suppositories are working and Lucas is feeling much better.

Speak to our compounding pharmacists about how they can help customize your child’s medication. Whether your child dislikes the taste or texture, has difficulty swallowing solid dosage forms, or are fearful of injections, we can help find a solution.
