#KasamaSaBestLife: Southstar Drug and Maxicare commit to support the Wellness Journey of Filipinos

For Filipinos, safeguarding the well-being of the entire family has always been a priority. With recent data showing that the top five leading causes of mortality in the country are lifestyle-related non-communicable diseases, there is a need to adopt healthier habits and a mindset that prevention is always better than cure to ensure optimum health and protection.

 

As champions of health and wellness, Southstar Drug and Maxicare have joined forces to support consumers in their journey toward a healthier and happier life. By offering an extensive selection of health essentials and world-class health services, they aim to be reliable companions, “Kasama sa Best Life,” for Filipinos. Their shared vision emphasizes the importance of holistic health as a key to unlocking one’s full potential and achieving life goals.
