For over 55 years, Samios Pharmacy has cared for families in Sunnybank Hills, Runcorn, Eight Mile Plains, Sunnybank, Coopers Plains and Acacia Ridge. Owner-pharmacists Peter and John and their team are here for your prescriptions, vaccinations, weekly medicines packs and everyday health advice, with the kind of friendly, personal service you'd expect from your local pharmacy.

A comprehensive review of all the medicines and vitamins you’re taking, conducted in your home by an accredited pharmacist, with findings reported back to your GP.

It’s a comprehensive medicine check-up in the comfort of your home, and can help catch interactions or issues your GP may not otherwise see.

• Requires a GP referral.
• Frequency limits and eligibility criteria are set by the HMR program.

Any changes to your medicines are made by your GP, not by the reviewing pharmacist directly.

Before Your Visit

Be prepared to discuss:

• All the medicines you’re currently taking, including over-the-counter and complementary products
• Any concerns you have about your medicines
• Relevant medical history where applicable

During Your Visit

An accredited pharmacist will visit your home and go through all the medicines you’re taking.

The review may also include advice on medicine timing, storage, or potential interactions, with a written report sent to your GP.

Do I need a referral?

Yes, a Home Medicines Review requires a referral from your GP.

Can I request a Home Medicines Review myself, or does it have to come from my GP?

The referral has to come from your GP, though you’re welcome to raise it with them if you think you’d benefit.

What happens after the review?

The pharmacist’s report goes to your GP, who will discuss any recommended changes at a follow-up appointment.
