Men, it's time to start paying attention to anti-aging procedures! While you may not be as worried about wrinkles and fine lines as your female counterparts, that doesn't mean you can neglect your skin. There are a number of unconventional procedures out there that can help keep you looking young and handsome for years to come. In this blog post, we will discuss four of the most popular unconventional procedures for men interested in anti-aging. WHAT ARE ANTI-AGING PROCEDURES? Anti-aging procedures are any type of cosmetic procedure that is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging. These procedures can be invasive, like facelifts, or non-invasive, like Botox injections. There are a number of different anti-aging procedures available, and new ones are being developed all the time. The most important thing to remember when considering any type of anti-aging procedure is that you should always consult with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon before moving forward. This is the only way to ensure that you are getting the best possible treatment for your needs.

The Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee (PSNC) has challenged price concessions imposed by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) on some of the medicines. It has raised concerns on the process for setting price concessions to senior government officials responsible for medicines supply, warning that the system is not working in the current environment from a community pharmacy contractor perspective. "When a new government takes over next week, this will be one of several urgent topics being raised by PSNC to new ministers, alongside the fuel price crisis, inflationary pressures and winter pressures on pharmacy businesses," said PSNC. The final update to August price concessions was announced yesterday taking the total concessions granted to a record 138 for August. PSNC said: "Of those, 99 were in line with PSNC requests, but prices for 39 lines were imposed by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC): those impositions do not match the purchase prices reported by contractors and the evidence of market prices which we passed on to DHSC. In particular, the final imposed prices of Apriprazole and Temazepam tablets has generated a lot of concern amongst contractors due to the large variation between their reimbursement prices and purchase prices during the month of August."

Paydens Pharmacy Group, one of the first multiple pharmacies to adopt hub and spoke model last year, revealed that the move has resulted in significant time savings in store. Centralising dispensing of repeat prescriptions relieves pressure in pharmacy branches and releases time to deliver revenue generating services, the group said. The group created a hub in Maidstone, Kent, to service its highest dispensing branches. The hub uses Centred Solution's FLOWRx Hub Auto to dispense their original pack repeat prescriptions. The group put in the first FLOWRx Hub production line in spring 2022 and then added in a second line in the autumn as they increased production and moved more stores to the hub and spoke model. The innovative solution interfaces with EMIS PMR, Omnicell's Robotic Dispensing System and Universal Logistics Management software as well as Victoria OS ordering software. The hub operation runs during the day Monday to Friday and produces an average of 33,289 packs per week for just under 9,000 patients, leaving plenty of scope to ramp up. The hub is currently dispensing 79.7% of repeat prescription original packs requested by the group's busiest stores.

Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has increased the rate of discount deduction for generics from 17.52 per cent to 20 per cent. The Drug Tariff for April 2023 will contain changes to the discount deduction arrangements for pharmacy contractors, which will include- all concession lines to be considered as Group Items for Discount Not Deducted i.e. DND or zero discount (ZD) items; and rate of discount deduction for generics to increase from 17.52% to 20% The Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee (PSNC) and DHSC agreed on the changes for all concession lines to be considered as Group Items for Discount Not Deducted. Therefore from 1 April 2023, a new category will be introduced into Part II of the Drug Tariff 'Drugs for which discount is not deducted'. However, the committee had rejected the changes in the rate of discount deduction for generics. It said, "Following pressure from NHS England, Ministers have now chosen to impose changes to the previously agreed discount deduction arrangements, which come into effect from 1 April, and will be kept under review."

Apple cider vinegar, a fermented drink made using crushed apples is considered a wholesome beverage by many wellness enthusiasts. Sure enough, it possesses copious nutrients like B vitamins, vitamin C, acetic acid, phosphorous, sodium, iron, calcium, and magnesium that work together towards enhancing overall physical salubriousness. However, despite its remarkable health-boosting benefits, its over consumption can also lead to a number of side-effects that can have a detrimental effect on your wellbeing. Here are seven such apple cider vinegar side effects: 1. Erosion of Tooth Enamel: Apple cider vinegar is considered a great home remedy for teeth whitening, but using it excessively for that purpose can backfire. The acetic acid contained in apple cider vinegar makes the teeth susceptible to erosion, easy decay, enhanced sensitivity and gum problems like bleeding and itching. If you want to make use of ACV, without damaging your pearly whites, it is advisable to dilute it in water before rinsing your mouth with it. 2. Stomach Irritation: Here's another one of apple vinegar side effects. Drinking ACV on a daily basis can trigger stomach irritation by resulting in acidity and corroding stomach lining, research conducted by the University of Arkansas's Department of Human Environmental Science reports. It can also cause other digestive problems like nausea and heartburn. If you are susceptible to gastrointestinal problems, exercise caution before including apple cider vinegar in your diet.
