Unichem Pharmacy

Welcome to Unichem Pharmacy, located at 29 Hukanui Road in Hamilton, New Zealand. As an establishment focused on health and wellness, we are proud to be a trusted pharmacy and point of interest in the community.

At Unichem Pharmacy, we believe in rewarding our customers for their health and beauty purchases. With our loyalty program, for every 150 points you earn, you'll receive a $10 voucher to use towards future purchases at our store or at Life Pharmacy. It's our way of showing appreciation for your continued support.

We are excited to announce that as of 1st July 2023, prescriptions are now free at your local Unichem Pharmacy. The government has eliminated the $5 co-payment charge for prescriptions from approved providers, ensuring that you have access to fully funded medicines. In addition to free prescriptions, our knowledgeable and professional staff are always available to provide you with expert health care and advice.

In line with our commitment to your well-being, we now offer consultations for minor health conditions at both Unichem and Life Pharmacy locations. You can conveniently seek advice and treatment for common ailments, helping you maintain optimal health.

As flu season approaches, we strongly recommend getting your flu vaccine. Influenza can be easily spread through talking, coughing, and sneezing, making vaccination your best defense against the flu. Our trained pharmacists can administer flu shots, including to children aged 3 years and over, at selected Unichem Pharmacies across New Zealand.

In addition to flu vaccinations, we are now offering COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters at participating Unichem and Life Pharmacies. Boosters are available to anyone aged 16 and older, with specific timing requirements for those who have completed their primary course. Please check with your local vaccination pharmacy for the availability of pediatric vaccinations.

To make managing your health easier, we have developed the FREE Unichem & Life Pharmacy App. With this app, you can conveniently order repeat prescriptions, receive medication reminders, and even manage the medications of your loved ones. It's a simple way to save time and take control of your health.

At Unichem Pharmacy, we understand that unexpected situations can arise, such as contraceptive failure or unprotected sex. In these instances, we offer emergency contraceptive pills (ECP) to help reduce the risk of pregnancy. Our compassionate and knowledgeable staff are here to provide support and guidance during potentially stressful times.

In addition to our pharmaceutical services, we also offer a range of convenient services. Our trained teams can provide ear piercing services in a hygienic and safe environment, ensuring your peace of mind. We also offer a digital photo service that meets New Zealand Government regulations for passport photos. Whether you need photos for online or postal passport requirements, our team is here to assist you.

If you're experiencing symptoms like sniffles and sneezing, our handy table can help you determine whether it's a cold or hayfever. We understand the importance of accurate diagnosis and can provide guidance on appropriate treatment options.

Lastly, if you're planning an overseas trip, we have a simple guide to help you prepare for a stress-free journey. We want to ensure your peace of mind before you embark on your adventure.

At Unichem Pharmacy, we are dedicated to providing exceptional service, expert advice, and quality products to our valued customers. Visit us today and experience the difference of a trusted health and wellness destination.
