MULTIPLE PACKS

- As pharmacists we must always comply explicitly with your doctors prescribed directions this includes the quantity of the prescription goods to be supplied. Therefore the only time we can supply an increased quantity of a prescribed medicine is if the doctor prescribes that quantity for you.
AUTHORITY PRESCRIPTION
- Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS.
Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health.
Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number).
Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication.
But still pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has the necessary Authority code.
PHARMACIST ONLY MEDICINE
- This product is a Pharmacist Only Medicine and requires pharmacist advice before we can dispatch this product. You must first place the order and then contact our pharmacists within 48 hours on 1300 367 283.
The pharmacist will determine if this product is appropriate for you and if so, approve the order. In the event that you do not do this, the product will be deleted from your order and the balance of your order will be dispatched.
This is not required if you have a doctor's prescription.

Information
Ostelin Calcium
& Vitamin D3 Tablets
Want strong bones?
Ostelin Calcium & Vitamin D3 is a combination supplement with Calcium
(as carbonate) 600mg and Vitamin D 500IU (colecalciferol 12.5mcg).
Did you know?
- Calcium is essential throughout life to build and maintain bone strength,
as it increases bone mineral density.
- Vitamin D is key for calcium absorption and maintaining bone strength and
muscle function.
- The human body cannot produce calcium, therefore we have to ensure we get
enough calcium through our diet to meet our daily requirement.
- 73% of Australian women don't get enough calcium through diet alone.? |

and absorbable source of calcium with 1 cup containing approximately 300mg of

calcium and 240mg of calcium respectively.4
Yoghurt: A 200g tub

Marine based
Sardines and salmon (with soft edible bones)

Tofu: ? cup of tofu
provides around 430mg of calcium.?
Beans: ? cup of white
beans contains 81mg of calcium and ? cup of red kidney beans contains 25mg of
