Treatment Woes

People diagnosed with chronic illnesses like hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol levels) need to change their lifestyles from how it used to be.

The challenge is to find a trusted healthcare brand that will ensure not just quality but also availability ensuring uninterrupted treatment. Second, the need for lifestyle modification is of utmost importance – patients must be aware of the chronicity of their disease, how complications would arise if these are poorly controlled & how vital it is to modify one’s lifestyle especially practical diet, nutrition and physical activity.


Winning Over Chronic Illnesses with Watsons Compliance Packs

A year and a half ago, Watsons Pharmacy launched the country’s first Compliance Pack program to help improve health outcomes of people afflicted with chronic diseases. “It’s high time for patients to win over chronic illnesses and take charge of their health & well-being. Through this program, we want to build awareness on medication compliance as a vital tool for therapeutic health, especially when it comes to chronic conditions. This is because, despite having these illnesses, it’s still possible for patients to enjoy healthier, quality lives,” said Watsons Health Business Unit Director Lyle Morrell.       




Since then thousands of patients suffering from hypertension, diabetes and high cholesterol have greatly benefitted from the program. Dina Sarne, 47, a working mom and hypertensive relates: “Malaking tulong and Watson’s Compliance Pack kasi naiiwasan yung mga instances na I missed out on my medication. Dahil halos 60% yung savings, nakakabili na ako ng monthly supply. Hindi din ako worried kasi alam kong trusted yung manufacturer”.


Leonardo Garcia, 50, on the other has been diabetic since 2007. Last year, he started using Compliance Pack Metformin saying, “Very timely ang produkto na ito dahil yung mga pamangkin ko tinutulungan ko din.. nag-aaral pa sila so yung savings na nakukuha ko sa gamot ay nagagamit kong  pandagdag sa sa allowances nila!  Also, now I see a brighter future kasi alam kong kaya kong I manage yung sakit ko at hindi sya hindrance in living my life to the fullest.”

Event Director Rodgil Flores, 44 with high cholesterol, enthused “Added feature ng Watson Compliance Pack is that it comes with a very informative literature – mga tips on how to better manage my health condition! Yung pharmacist din nagka counsel talaga so they help as well. I’m a very busy person, if I’m not involved with events I go around the country judging beauty pageants so I should always bring my medicines with me. With this program of Watsons, it’s easier to stock up on my medication”

Inspired by the positive affirmations from patients, Watsons pushes the envelope further by relaunching the Compliance Pack program that’s even more affordable, informative and rewarding.


More Reasons to Comply!

Happy and healthy living can be achieved with Watsons Compliance Packs.
Prescription lapses can worsen one’s illnesses and make it difficult for patients to cope with complications. Thus, the new Watsons Compliance Pack program aims to help in managing patients’ health issues easier and hassle-free with the following benefits:

More Savings. Now, with as much as 80% savings versus leading brands, Watsons Compliance Packs are sold in packs of 30s for easier compliance in taking the daily medications. Prices have been brought down further to enable more patients to afford it.

New Quality Healthcare Partner. Now in partnership with Unilab, patients are assured of gold-standard, quality formulation of commonly prescribed medications like Amplodipine, Losartan & Metoprolol for hypertension, Metformin for diabetes and Simvastatin for high cholesterol.

More Informative & More Rewards. Each pack contains a product leaflet that has valuable information on the disease, sensible tips on how to stay healthy and a suggested diet plan. It even gets better with more rewards from partner brands like Omron, Accucheck, Health First & High Precision, Wheatgrass and other partners to help patients manage their diseases better.   

Exclusively available at Watsons, the program aims to strengthen Watsons advocacy of not just offering effective yet affordable medication Filipinos but strengthening awareness and education for improved disease management.

“It takes too much effort for a patient to integrate a lifetime of
treatment into his daily routine …”

I never thought that Diana Stalder is already in its fifteen year. I only find this beauty and skin care shop only when I pass the 3rd floor of EDSA Pavilion going to MRT. I even never thought that Diana Stalder was the Dermaline Facial and Skin Care Center. 


Diana Stalder had joined the world of wellness and beauty as they are represented beauty and charm. I also, noticed that they manufactured all their quality skin-care products and using its impressive line-up for Diana Stalder that aims to satisfy every man and women who desire for beautiful skin.


These days, Diana Stalder re-introduce its first skin care center offering brand that is time-tested formulation with enhance and specialized treatment and a brand of unique service focusing on customized skin care delivered by well trained professionals. The ambiances are very relaxing, and you will have a homey feeling when you get there.


And I was lucky enough to try their service as they invite bloggers for a SPArty. It was my first time in Diana Stalder Ayala branch and for that day we had our Premium Diamond feel worth of P2000. Their brand and they services are unique. My aesthetician was very professional and really knows what she's doing.


She first cleaned my face up to lower my neck. Then she scrubs and followed a good massage and covering my eye with cucumber. 

After I have a rest for a minute she did the diamond peel, it's like a small vacuum who absorbs the dead skin on your face. Then the scariest part is when she squeezed my face but the most relaxing is that when she put moisturizer in my face after a hot and cold compress.
Of course, our day will end by a yummy snack of empanada, nacho chips and puto pao who really taste so good. Prince says that the puto pao was brought by Madam Dina, who never reveals her secret where to buy them.


I wish to go back to Diana Stadler for their great services and of course for the puto pao who really makes you to come back. By the way, the snack is not for free when you visit them. It's only for bloggers who tried their wonderful services.

For more information, please visit wwww.dianastalder.com and Like them on Facebook at DIANASTALDERbyDermaline or you may call 892-5659.

A good healthy eating plan can be effective in losing more weight that having regular exercise, and it is not that difficult to do. Just making sure that you have your guides with you while doing and choosing what you eat. The following is the simple step to enjoy the benefits of health eating. 

1.) Eat before you feel starved to avoid overeating. Drink a glass of water before meal time so that you don’t had to feel the hunger.

2.) Chew your food properly, take a small bite before taking the next bite. Take time to eat slowly. 

3.) Do not feed your eyes and eat just with your stomach. Your body will tell you when you are already full. 

4.) Don’t drink your calories, eat them. Soda or carbonated drinks can add a lot of extra calories, and even fruit juice is not the best option, so drink a lot of water instead. 

5.) Take your breakfast as soon as you get up in the morning. It will give you a good start in your body's metabolism. Skipping your breakfast can results gaining more weight. 

6.) Eat different fruits and vegetables in every meal to get all the vitamins and minerals that you need.

7.) Eat at least two portions of fish every week. You can have it fresh, frozen or canned, but take note that canned and smoked fish are high in salt. 

8.) Fried chicken is not a healthy choice it's actually rich in fat and calories than burger. Grilled chicken is the best option.

9.) Avoid foods with high saturated fat. Instead, have vegetable oils, oily fish, avocados, nuts and seeds as replacement. 

10.) Reduce the intake of sugar, salt and white flour these three products are not good for your health if you take more of it.
