Did you know that sunscreen expires? 🌞 Yes! Like milk, eggs, and yogurt, sunscreen can expire. While it won't make you sick like expired food, it will be less effective in the summer sun.

Before you head out and enjoy the weather, make sure to check your sunscreen and lather up!

Did you know that ARTARx can help you manage multiple prescriptions with medication synchronization?

You can request to have your prescriptions synchronized to a single refill date, so that each bottle will be empty at the same time! It frees up time by eliminating the need for multiple trips to the pharmacy and helps you keep track of multiple medications! Visit artarx.net/pharmacy-services to learn about medication synchronization.

As we approach summer it can be tempting to want to spend every opportunity enjoying the outdoors, but it is important to remember a few sun safety habits to protect you & your skin:
☀️ Seek shade during peak UV hours, between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
☀️ Generously apply broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher
☀️ Wear a wide-brimmed hat, protective clothing, and UV-protective sunglasses
