Sleep Apnoea Services - Rangiora & Woodend

Support for Better Sleep and Health

Q: What is sleep apnoea and how can your pharmacy help?

A: Sleep apnoea is a disorder where the airway repeatedly collapses during sleep, causing breathing to stop or become shallow. Our pharmacists are trained in the management of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and provide assessment, product supply, and ongoing support at both Rangiora and Woodend pharmacies.

Recognising Sleep Apnoea

Common symptoms:

  • Loud, persistent snoring
  • Early morning headaches
  • Daytime sleepiness or falling asleep during routine activities
  • Poor concentration, irritability, or mood changes
  • Witnessed pauses in breathing, choking, or gasping for air at night
  • Restless sleep and frequent nighttime bathroom visits

If you experience these symptoms, talk to our pharmacists about sleep apnoea assessment and support.

Our Sleep Apnoea Process

  1. Assessment & Screening: Our pharmacists can discuss your symptoms, risk factors, and whether you may benefit from further sleep testing.
  2. Diagnosis: If needed, we’ll guide you to an overnight diagnostic sleep test to confirm OSA and determine its severity.
  3. Primary Treatment: Most diagnosed patients benefit from Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy.
  4. Ongoing Support: We provide professional mask fitting, product supply, and advice to help you get the best results from your CPAP therapy.
