Beginning of fall
September 22
Today at 20:19 is the official start of fall
The beginning of autumn in the calendar marks the end of summer and the beginning of fall. Autumn now begins in the northern hemisphere, while in the southern hemisphere it starts in March.
This time of year not only brings cooler temperatures and shorter days, but often also a special mood: a mixture of pensiveness and quiet melancholy. The lack of sunlight lowers serotonin levels - which can affect our mood.
But this is also an opportunity. Autumn invites us to pause, take stock and set new goals. Studies show that our mental performance is particularly high right now - ideal for consciously reflecting and making a fresh start. Many people experience this impulse as a "September reset": What is good for me, what do I want to change?
As your team at arzneiprivat and Sonnenapotheke, we would like to encourage you to make the most of this time - with exercise in the fresh air, a healthy diet, mental self-care and, if necessary, supportive products from your pharmacy. Stay active, maintain social contacts and treat yourself to little islands of peace and quiet. ( Source: Autumn as a new start for mind and soul)

We wish you a powerful and balanced fall.

Skin care in summer - how to keep your skin healthy and radiant!
We give you tips
Our tips will show you how to optimally care for and protect your skin in summer.
1 - Sun protection is the most important step
The sun is good for us - it lifts our mood and ensures the production of vitamin D.
But too much sunlight can damage the skin. UVA and UVB rays in particular are very strong in summer and can age the skin more quickly, cause sunburn and even increase the risk of skin cancer in the long term. Daily sun protection is therefore essential, even when it is cloudy - because UV rays penetrate even thin layers of cloud. It is best to use a sun cream ( sun cream 50+ ) with sun protection factor 30 or 50 to reliably protect your skin.
For the face and décolleté, we recommend light, non-greasy products that are quickly absorbed and do not leave an unpleasant film - so your skin feels fresh and nourished even in the heat.
You can also order the right sun protection from us
2 - Light care instead of heavy creams
Our skin has completely different needs in summer than in winter. Heat and sweating often cause it to produce more sebum and feel "heavy" or oily more quickly. Rich, greasy creams can then be too much of a good thing - they sit on the skin, clog the pores and often make it shiny. That's why you should opt for light textures such as fluids, gels or emulsions that are quickly absorbed and intensively moisturize without being greasy. Care products with hyaluronic acid, aloe vera or glycerine are particularly suitable
( from our pharamcy )– they help the skin to maintain its natural moisture balance.
Extra tip: Store your moisturizing spray in the fridge - this provides a refreshing kick between uses.
3. cleaning - gentle but thorough
Sweat, sun cream and sebum clog the pores more quickly. Therefore, use a moisturizer in the morning and evening. mild cleansing,
that does not dry out the skin.Gentle exfoliation 1-2 times a week helps to remove dead skin cells and prevents blemishes.
4. after-sun care - soothing for sun-stressed skin
After a day in the sun, your skin will look forward to soothing care. After-sun products with panthenol, aloe vera or allantoin (Order here) cool, moisturize and promote skin regeneration. The following applies to sunburn: cool, protect and hydrate the skin well - and seek advice from the pharmacy if the symptoms are more severe.
5. do not forget to drink
Beautiful skin also comes from within. In summer, the body needs more fluids. Drink at least 1.5-2 liters of water or unsweetened tea every day to provide the skin cells with sufficient moisture.

With the right products and a little mindfulness, beautiful summer skin is no coincidence - we hope our recommendations will help you!
Best wishes and have a nice summer from your team at Sonnen-Apotheke

Spring brings new energy - but the change from the cold winter months to the warmer months requires some adjustments. With these simple tips, you can start the new season healthy and refreshed.

Happy New Year!
The year 2025 is just around the corner.
Tomorrow, we will traditionally celebrate the arrival of the new year
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas, enjoyed lots of gifts, and spent quality time with your family.
As 2024 comes to a close, it has been a year full of events and changes. A significant moment was the expansion of our delivery area to Elten, as the local pharmacy closed, and we were able to offer our delivery service to this region. In the second quarter of the year, our pharmacy was given a fresh new look after an extensive renovation: modern wood panels and electronic screens, where we can now present our product selections, provide a more pleasant shopping experience. We also introduced a new pharmacy shirt for our employees in white and petrol colors, which complements the fresh appearance of the pharmacy. In addition, the cabinets where materials like bandages are stored were re-wrapped to match the new design of the pharmacy.
The summer brought the UEFA Euro 2024, with Germany participating. Together with our customers, we cheered on the national football team. Another highlight was that Bea successfully completed her training as a PKA, strengthening our pharmacy team with her support. In August, we expanded our shipping area with additional bins to accommodate more orders for our online store, "Arzneiprivat."
A particularly joyful occasion was the news that our dear colleague Linda was expecting a baby. She went on maternity leave in September and has since given birth to a healthy child. Furthermore, there were some changes in our team during 2024: Some colleagues left, while we welcomed wonderful new team members, including Pina, Antonio, and Natalia, who have been a great addition to our team.
At the end of the year, we held our annual Christmas party — but this time, it wasn't in the pharmacy. Instead, we gathered in a lovely venue outside of the pharmacy. We enjoyed an unforgettable evening filled with delicious food, drinks, and great company. Also, in our Sonnen-Apotheke, our customers had the opportunity to win gifts with an Advent calendar and celebrate the Advent season with us.
Now, on the penultimate day of the year, I look back on a year full of learning and adventure. We are grateful for all the experiences and are happy to have welcomed you as customers. It has been a pleasure to accompany you during this time, and we look forward to hearing from you again soon.
Stay healthy and start the year 2025 with gratitude and love in your heart.
We look forward to a successful and continued journey with you!
Best wishes for a Happy New Year,

Christmas party 2024
This year's Christmas party took place on 29.11.2024
Here you can see some insights
This year's Christmas party did not take place in the pharmacy as usual, but in the cozy restaurant “Am halben Mond”.
The change of location was also due to the new organization team, which had changed compared to previous years.
The celebration began with a relaxed get-together outside by the fire basket, where mulled wine and toasted bread with various dips were served.
This was followed by the Christmas dinner starter: a delicious potato soup and chicken broth with egg garnish. Before the main course was served, the guests had lots of fun in front of the photo box, where they had their pictures taken with festive Christmas accessories.
As the evening progressed, there was plenty of laughter and dancing, and the first real Christmas spirit was established in November.
In between, there was a small raffle and everyone received a small gift as a memento of this wonderful evening.
We had an enchanting pre-Christmas celebration and were delighted to spend this evening together, we are already looking forward to next year.

We were delighted that she shared this culinary treasure with us.
It is a pleasure to have Pina in our team.

World Pharmacy Technician Day
Every third Tuesday in October, the work of PTAs is honoured and celebrated
We celebrated the day with delicious pastries and cakes from the bakery.
When Bea brought the breakfast rolls this morning, she had a few more bags with her than usual.
The reason for this was the cake and treats she had brought with her to mark World PTA Day.
The aim of PTA Day is to highlight the work of PTAs worldwide and emphasise their importance in the healthcare system.
The aim of World Pharmaceutical Technical Assistants Day is to create a movement that
change the attitudes of patients, pharmacists and even PTAs to recognise their true value and influence
in the pharmacy. The day was celebrated this year under the theme ‘More than just a technician’.
On this day, we especially celebrated our PTAs Lisa, Andrea, Agnes, Ines, Christiane, Isabell and the boss and are very grateful,

Drink regularly
The importance of drinking enough water
Today we'll show you why it's important to drink enough every day
The human body consists of 65% water, which is why we should make sure we drink enough fluids every day.
Doctors therefore recommend drinking around 2-4 liters.
Drinking enough water helps to keep the skin looking young and firm, as the skin cells are supplied with sufficient fluid.
Hair also consists of 20% water so that it stays healthy for a long time.
Water aids digestion by transporting food through the digestive tract and aiding the absorption of nutrients.
It also helps to regulate body temperature by releasing heat through sweating and breathing.
Adequate hydration supports kidney function by helping the kidneys to efficiently filter and excrete waste from the body.
In addition, water keeps joints supple and reduces the risk of joint pain and inflammation
. Good hydration can also improve cognitive function by aiding concentration and memory.
Finally, water can increase satiety and boost metabolism, which can help with weight los
Tips that can help with regular drinking arealways drink a glass of water after getting up
- drink a glass with every meal
- fill the glass as soon as it is empty
- provide the daily drinking ration in the morning
- Always have drinks to hand
- Set an alarm clock or use a drinking app
- Flavor water with taste, e.g. with lemon slices, mint
- Alternate when drinking e.g. unsweetened teas
We hope that we have been able to help you with these tips.

2. pain that occurs as a result of illness
In most cases, eating and drinking enough, getting enough rest, fresh air and warmth in the neck help to relieve headaches.

Day of sun protection
21.06.2024 was the day of sun protection
A few days ago was the official start of summer
Temperatures are finally rising and it's getting warmer outside.
After the official start of summer, there are more hours of sunshine and the sun shines longer.
Due to climate change, more UV rays are reaching the earth's surface and therefore our skin and eyes.
UV radiation can lead to skin cancer, but can also cause long-term damage such as sunburn, conjunctivitis and corneal inflammation.
Simply come into our sun pharmacy and let us advise you on which sun protection is best for you.
We have sunscreens from brands such as Ladival, La Roche Posay and Dermasence in our range.
You can also conveniently order your sun protection in our online store "arzneiprivat" and have it delivered to your home.

N stands for emergency service in German.
We have an emergency service every one to two weeks.
The emergency service runs from 9.00 a.m. to 9.00 a.m. the next day.
Our pharmacists take turns on emergency duty.
Which pharmacy is on emergency duty and when is determined by the pharmacy chambers of the individual federal states.
Due to the density of pharmacies, pharmacies in larger cities have to provide significantly fewer emergency services than pharmacies in rural areas.
O stands for Offizin.
The dispensary is the sales room in the pharmacy where customers are advised.
The pharmacy is divided into
over-the-counter pharmacy (non-prescription medicines can be purchased here) and
over-the-counter (medicines can be purchased here without a prescription after consultation with the pharmacist = pharmacy-only medicines).
The term is derived from the Latin word "officina".
P stands for PTA.
PTA is the abbreviation for pharmaceutical technical assistant.
In the picture you can see from left to right: Andrea PTA, Luisa (training to become a PTA) and Linda (PTA).
Training to become a PTA takes 2.5 years, of which 2 years are at school and the rest is practical training in the pharmacy. In addition, 160 hours of clinical traineeship (internship) must be completed. Important school subjects are pharmacology, galenics and chemistry.
We hope you have once again learned something you didn't know about!

We have provided you with a seat for the summer. Enjoy the sun after your visit with us.


Dear ones,
Once again, the year is drawing to a close. A year that many of us had imagined differently.
This year, too, the pandemic had us firmly in its grip. Together we overcame setbacks, and the hope that this pandemic will end soon gave us the strength to get through this year with a lot of patience and understanding for each other.
Ingo and the Arzneiprivat team wish you a Merry Christmas.
Enjoy the time with your loved ones, and come healthy into the new year.
Your Ingo and the Arzneiprivat team
So folks, with the start of the holidays, I'm getting back to you with a personal post.
This Corona winter has taken its toll on all of us, the past months have been really hard and long.
We at sonnen-apotheke and arzneiprivat from Emmerich therefore wish you a wonderful summer season with all our hearts. Make the best of it, enjoy the freedom.
What are you doing on holiday, what are you planning?
I will go with my family for a few days to the North Sea in Renesse. There is some wind for kitesurfing and sun to enjoy the beach. Unfortunately, I don't have more than a week this summer due to time constraints.
So all the best to you...
Your Ingo
Here are a few pictures to get you in the mood


Dear ones,
This memorable year is drawing to a close. Normally I am one of those who like to look back and enjoy what I have experienced,
but this year I'm glad it's over. I hope for all of us in Germany, in the Netherlands, in Poland, indeed in all of Europe and the world,
that this pandemic will soon end and we can all live normally again.
It is the contact with our fellow human beings, friends and relatives that we have missed the most.
Despite the circumstances, I wish you all a happy and reflective Christmas. Come healthy into the new year.
Your Ingo and the arzneiprivat team.
