Watsons Compliance Pack



People diagnosed with chronic illnesses like hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol levels) which is need to be change their lifestyle from how it used to be. For example my husband, which is diagnosed with hypertension related to polycetemia vera last 2008. From then he has given a maintenance drug that will help him lower his high blood pressure. Simultaneously he also change his lifestyle including his eating habits and physical activity.


The challenge to find a trusted healthcare brand to ensure the quality and availability is an ongoing problem that we encountered. We are making sure his treatment is uninterrupted to avoid further complications would arise. Since then, we are looking for a brand that will ensure his controlled blood pressure. We also had a monthly check-up for proper monitoring and advice from his doctor. Moreover, I had a spread sheet that indicates his blood pressure day and night.

Watsons and Unilab Executives

When I saw the Watsons Compliance Pack and Amlodipine Besilate is one of them, we ask his doctor and he approved the said brand from Unilab. It only cost 157.50Php(5mg) and 217.50Php(10mg) of 30 pcs. its a much affordable compare to other brand that my husband is taking and without compensating the quality. Since then, we never tried other brands anymore and we are living in a healthy and quality life.


There are also other medications thats included in Watsons Compliance Pack by 30's like Losartan 350Php (50mg)/ 425Php(100mg), Metformin 67.50Php(500mg), Metoprolol 72.50Php(50mg)/121.75Php(100mg), Simvastatin 211.50Php(20mg)/425Php(40mg).

Enjoying Sunkist Orange Juice Drink



Recently I had a week of refreshing and pulpy drink every meal, because I discovered the Sunkist Orange Juice Drink. Before I had it, my meal companion's coffee and take note, its black coffee, but when I tried Sunkist later last year which I really love it. Moreover, an angel gave me 3 liters for me to enjoy more of Sunkist. And it never failed and now I always had it in my refrigerator and forget about coffee. And since my doctor advised me to lessen my coffee consumption due too much blood acidity diagnosis, Sunkist is so much helping me to be healthy and gain good blood condition.

Sunkist is a power brand recognized the world over for quality orange fruits. The taste is so right for me from sweetness to pulpy bites that is so real and refreshing, I really love it. I tasted the first brand of pulpy drink but Sunkist captured my taste buds reasonable enough to concur my refrigerator, for me and my hubby which is more health conscious than me. We're enjoying it everyday specially at dinner after a day of work. Thank you Angel for the reminder and thank you Sunkist for saving me.

Department of Education Graduation Guidelines

The graduation rites in all public elementary and secondary schools will be on March 28 or 29, 2012. Department of Education calls on all school heads to strictly observe the guidelines on the holding of graduation ceremonies foremost of which is the non-collection of any kind of fees for the school year-closing rites.

DepEd Secretary Bro Armin Luistro said “I would like to reiterate DepEd Order No. 8, series of 2005 which prohibits the collection of any graduation fees or any kind of contribution for the graduation rites. I will hold responsible all school heads and DepEd personnel who will violate this”.


The education chief reiterated that no extravagant special graduation attire and extraordinary venue are required. Contribution for the yearbook (if any) is voluntary. “The significance of the event should not be overshadowed by pomp, pageantry and unwarranted spending and in graduation, we want to be reminded of what our learners gained during their stay in school, their sense of community and personal responsibility” Luistro pointed out.

Moreover, Luistro emphasized that the graduation rites itself should be solemn, focused on the students and their parents and not a venue for political forum. Make it simple and a meaningful event.

On that note I strongly agree with what Bro Luistro said and with the existing calamity nowadays I think that would be a right judgement not only for the parents as well as for our country as well.
