Stern Apotheke Lenzburg AG

As a traditional family business, Stern Apotheke has been offering unique service and expert advice on medications and all health-related questions since 1910. We look forward to your visit!

Advice
We take time for you! Personal advice is our strength. We help you to make taking your medication as easy as possible so that you can achieve your treatment goals. This can improve your quality of life. Dr. Patrick and Nadia Eichenberger and the entire team at Stern Pharmacy look forward to your visit!

Blood pressure monitors
Would you like to measure your blood pressure regularly at home? Do you have a question about blood pressure monitors? We take the time to explain the advantages of the different models and the most important points to consider when measuring blood pressure. There are various products to choose from.

Blood glucose meters
Diabetics—whether insulin-dependent or not—need to be able to rely on their blood glucose readings and should be aware of their blood glucose levels. It is equally important that the device is optimally tailored to the patient's needs. Do you often need to take readings on the go? Is ease of use important to you? Would you like to transfer your data to a PC? We can help you find the device that is best for you.

Compression stockings
Today, every second adult suffers from leg problems and many from varicose veins. Did you know that these problems can be eliminated by wearing light compression stockings? We will take precise measurements to ensure you get the right stockings. We will also be happy to advise you on the quality. We offer practical aids to make it easier to put on and take off the stockings every day.

Cosmetics
Would you like to treat yourself to something special? Beautiful skin is the epitome of health today. We can offer you high-quality products from various brands: Louis Widmer, Vichy, La Roche Posay, Eau Thermale Avène, Eucerin, and others.

Loyalty card
Are you already enjoying the benefits of our customer card? You collect valuable points with every purchase. This is how we reward your loyalty and also increase safety when using medication: if medication you have purchased yourself is not compatible with medication prescribed by your doctor, you will be notified.

Emergency service
A pharmacy is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year at the cantonal hospital in Aarau (near building 1/main entrance).

Morning-after pill
If the worst should happen, we are happy to help you—in a straightforward and discreet manner. A pharmacist will take the time to talk to you in confidence. We will clarify whether it is necessary to take the morning-after pill. We will provide you with detailed information about the product and discuss the next steps with you.

Medication analysis (polymedication check)
If you have been taking four or more medications for a long time, it is worth discussing each medication individually to check whether you really still need all of them and whether there are any uncertainties.

Postal delivery
If you are on vacation and have forgotten your medication at home, we can of course send you a replacement by mail. Please contact us!

Smoking cessation
Would you like to quit smoking? This is a big challenge—we are happy to support you: We will give you helpful advice and can show you various medications or methods to help you. This increases your chances of success in achieving your goal.

Travel advice
Whether you are planning a hiking vacation with your family, trekking in the high mountains, or a beach vacation in the Far East, we will be happy to advise you on all medical aspects of your planned trip. You will receive the latest information for each country and we will create a personalized travel dossier for you. We will also discuss specific measures with you, such as the need for malaria prophylaxis or necessary vaccinations. Together, we will then put together a personal first-aid kit for you, tailored to your specific needs.

Wheelchair accessibility
Thanks to the ramp in front of the pharmacy, we are also easily accessible for people with walking disabilities or those who are wheelchair-bound.

Languages
Consultations at Stern Apotheke are available in the following languages: German, Italian, French, English, Spanish, Turkish, and Serbian.

Grief counseling
If you are interested, we would be happy to refer you to someone who can provide professional grief counseling. Various ways of consciously saying goodbye are presented.

Rental
We rent out various medical aids: breast pumps, crutches, inhalers.

Shipping – Medicines by mail-order pharmacy
You may have already received advertising from your health insurance company telling you to purchase your medication from a mail-order pharmacy. At first glance, ordering from an online pharmacy may seem convenient, but what do you do if you realize on a Friday that you have run out of blood thinners or pain medication? The package will arrive on Monday at the earliest, but perhaps not until Tuesday. Suddenly, you are glad to have a local pharmacy. But they don't know you and you don't have a prescription. If you purchase most of your medication from a mail-order pharmacy but occasionally visit a local pharmacy, the risk of interactions increases because neither institution has an overview of your medication: Medication is not a toy – it's your health!
If you ever need a medication urgently, we will deliver it to your home in the Lenzburg region free of charge – on the same day. We are definitely faster than any mail-order pharmacy.
