In conjunction with World Pharmacist Day on 25 September, Malaysia’s largest prescription pharmacy chain, Alpro Pharmacy, launched its newest outlet at KidZania Kuala Lumpur today. Alpro Pharmacy, the only pharmacy in the interactive city for kids, joined the buzzing neighborhood that presents more than 70 role- play activities, offering children the chance to experience different professions through realistic, immersive experiences.
Ph. Lim En Ni, the Engagement Director and Chief Pharmacist of Alpro Pharmacy said "Our expansion to KidZania Kuala Lumpur aligns with our vision for a healthy and vibrant world. At Alpro Pharmacy, our mission is to provide opportunities, health, and guidance to anyone striving for a better life. It's essential to introduce children early to the crucial role pharmacists play in their lives, particularly in ensuring medication safety.
“KidZania's unique setting allows us to engage children through role-play activities that develop their critical thinking, self-knowledge, and creativity. It also promotes life-shaping values such as respect, responsibility, and integrity."
Alpro Pharmacy at KidZania Kuala Lumpur offers children a unique opportunity to explore the world of a community pharmacist through 20-minute interactive activities and real-life experiences. The outlet features a compounding lab where children can create their own soothing gel with guidance from professionals at the outlet. They can also take home their personalised gel, which is designed to calm eczema and relief of minor burns.
At the launch event, Ph. Lim also highlighted the theme for this year’s World Pharmacists Day, ‘Pharmacists: Meeting Global Health Needs,’ and the role of community pharmacists in supporting the nation in its fight against chronic diseases such as eczema and non- communicable diseases (NCDs), and transition to the projected ageing nation status by 2030.
“With more than 300 outlets nationwide, our community pharmacists are accessible and available to serve the community on primary healthcare and disease prevention. Apart from advice on medication, we also provide services such as smoking cessation, family planning and pain management. What’s more, is that our operation hours are longer than most hospitals and clinics, and talking to us doesn’t require any appointment, and no consultation fees will be charged,” Ph. Lim said.
Alpro Pharmacy at KidZania Kuala Lumpur is located at the wellness vicinity on the Upper Floor, opposite the hospital. It has ongoing vacancies for pharmacists-wannabes from the age of 6. It is open from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. daily.
