1
Hey everybody!
2
It's Arianita La Gringa and welcome back to my YouTube channel.
3
If you guys don't know anything about me, I am a native English teacher teaching you guys English at different places.
4
Sadly, I'm not in New York City, but I'm back in my hometown Cincinnati, Ohio, and in today's video I am at Walgreens.
5
Today I'm going to teach all of you pharmacy vocab because Walgreens is a pharmacy.
6
Walgreens is a pharmacy and inside you can get prescription medications.
7
So come along with me and let's go walk inside and learn some pharmacy vocab and how to medicate certain illnesses.
8
Apparently I can't record inside Walgreens, but there is another pharmacy right across Walgreens called CVS Pharmacy.
9
I'm going to try and record inside without getting caught.
10
I am standing in the middle of an aisle with lots of over-the-counter medication,
11
and you use this over-the-counter medication when you are feeling under the weather or sick.
12
I'm going to teach you the different types of illnesses and health vocab, but I'm going to start from my head and then work my way down to my toes.
13
Let's start with the head.
14
What do you call when you have a throbbing pain in your head?
15
That is called a headache.
16
Headache.
17
There are several different types of headaches, but the most common is a migraine.
18
When you're looking for over-the-counter medication to relieve your headache pain, look at the signs.
19
This sign says pain relief.
20
I'm going to look for pain relief for headache support.
21
I can find different types of pills, different types of medications like migraine relief.
22
This is the CVS Health brand.
23
Some other types of over-the-counter meds that can help relieve your headache pain is Excedrin.
24
This is extra strength Excedrin and it contains acetaminophen, aspirin, and caffeine.
25
As I said before, the most common type of headache is a migraine.
26
You can buy this migraine relief and it'll help relieve your migraine.
27
But another type of headache is a tension headache
28
if you have a headache look for the specific type of headache you have
29
and you can buy this at the checkout counter also they have a migraine
30
and fever cooling gel sheet this is different than taking a pill this will actually be placed on your forehead
31
and help you relieve your headache sadly i got kicked out of walgreens pharmacy as well as cvs pharmacy
32
and now my last
33
and third option is to go teach you guys some pharmacy vocab inside kroger
34
because they also have a pharmacy over there moving from our
35
head now we're going to focus on our eyes these are our eyes
36
and what happens if you're looking at your phone for too long
37
if you have allergies
38
and you might see some redness your eyes might be a
39
little bit dry well you can put in eye drops you'll
40
put eye drops in your eyes to help you relieve the redness
41
and the dryness of your eyes moving down from your eyes
42
there is the nose what do you call this achoo achoo
43
that is called a sneeze i just sneezed also
44
when you are sick you may sneeze achoo
45
and you may have mucus going down to your lips down to your cheeks what is
46
that called that is called a runny nose.
47
Runny nose.
48
What over-the-counter medication can you use to help you reduce you from sneezing
49
or stop your nose from running or stop your sniffles?
50
You have this right here.
51
It's called Afrin.
52
It's a nasal spray that you'll use to relieve and decongest that area.
53
You also have some tablets you can use, a sinus congestion you can take a pill
54
and swallow it and this will help you relieve all this congestion and your sniffles and your runny nose.
55
If you don't have a cold, then you can use Zyrtec.
56
This is an allergy medication.
57
So if you're sneezing a lot, if it's spring or it's a change of season like fall and you have allergies, you can take this Zyrtec pill once every day
58
and it'll help reduce you from sneezing and having a runny nose due to allergies.
59
Of course, if you keep sneezing, achoo, and if you still have a runny nose and these medications that I taught you guys aren't helping you out,
60
you may have a cold, a viral infection, or the flu.
61
Flu.
62
What are some of the over-the-counter meds that you can take to help you reduce your cold or flu symptoms?
63
You have Vix-Dayquil.
64
This is for cold and flu.
65
You drink this medication from this small cup.
66
It'll help relieve headache, fever, sore throat, minor aches, and pains.
67
Another drinkable medication is called Theraflu.
68
Theraflu helps reduce your cough symptoms, nasal congestion, what we just talked about, sore throat pain, because sore throat is the number one symptom of a cold.
69
This Theraflu comes in a packet.
70
You'll pour it in a cup full of hot water, and then this will dissolve, and you'll drink your tea or your hot cup of water, and this will help soothe your sore throat.
71
Another over- the counter med that may help your cold or flu symptoms is this right here.
72
This is daytime severe cold and flu medication and it's a soft gel.
73
Soft gel is similar to a pill.
74
You still will put it on your tongue and you'll swallow it while drinking water.
75
It's a great way to help relieve your cold and flu symptoms and they have two different soft gels you can take.
76
They have a daytime and a nighttime.
77
And lastly, one of my favorite cold remedies are cough drops.
78
I love cough drops because they taste just like candy.
79
A cough drop will help soothe your sore throat because when you have a cold or you're sick, you might be coughing a lot,
80
coughing a lot, or you may have trouble swallowing things.
81
It may hurt when you're swallowing.
82
So taking these cough drops will help soothe your sore throat.
83
Before continuing the video, being in a pharmacy made me realize how important it is to have good health, especially good mental health.
84
That is why I want to talk to you about the sponsor of today's video, BetterHelp.
85
Personally, managing a busy life with many commitments or responsibilities can be stressful.
86
That is why I've been using BetterHelp to live a healthier and happier life.
87
I learned in my therapy session to practice mindfulness.
88
By practicing gratitude, I can focus my attention on what is positive in the present moment and reduce my stress.
89
BetterHelp is the world's largest therapy service that is 100% online.
90
BetterHelp can match to one of over 30 000 licensed
91
and accredited therapists who are trained to listen
92
and give you unbiased advice to get started you fill out a questionnaire to help assess your specific needs
93
and then you'll get matched with a therapist starting therapy can be hard
94
and the right therapist for you may not be in your area
95
and some people find the face-to-face interaction of therapy uncomfortable
96
but with better help you have different options you can have your therapy sessions as a phone call, as a video chat, or even via messaging if you prefer that.
97
Whatever is the most comfortable version of therapy for you.
98
And the best part, you'll be able to schedule therapy sessions at a time that's convenient for you.
99
If the therapist you're first matched with doesn't feel like the right fit, which can be common when starting therapy,
100
you can easily switch to a new therapist at no additional cost without stressing about insurance who's on your network
101
or anything like that
102
if you think you might benefit from therapy consider better help click the link in the description or visit betterhelp.com
103
now let's learn more about pharmacy vocab so far we've talked about a headache
104
when you have a pounding throbbing pain in your head
105
and then we talked about our eyes you use eye drops
106
you drop eye drops in your eyes to help relieve the redness from your eyes
107
and then moving down from our eyes we talked about the nose
108
when you're sniffling if you're sick also
109
if you're feeling under the weather you may be sneezing a lot achoo
110
or you might have a runny nose
111
so you might need some tissues to help clean the mucus running down your nose
112
or you may have a sore throat from coughing a lot
113
but what happens if your back hurts that is called a backache
114
and you may have a backache if you lift something really heavy
115
and if you're not in the proper position to lift something
116
so if i'm hunched over like this and
117
if i don't use my legs to lift something up i might get a back ache basically a backache is
118
when your back hurts what do you do to relieve this pain you can buy cream
119
and rub it on your back you can also buy a cold pack
120
which will help reduce the pain
121
or you can buy this this is a leave back
122
and muscle pain it's a pill so you just swallow the pill
123
and then hopefully in a couple of hours your back pain
124
will disappear what do you guys call this big red box
125
that has all of your supplies so if you get a cut
126
or a scrape you can find all of your supplies in
127
this big box this is a first aid kit in this first aid kit you can find band-aids gauze
128
hand cleansing wipes benadryl neosporin so
129
if you have a cut you put neosporin on top of your cut
130
and that'll help heal the wound tylenol adhesive bandages scissors
131
and instant cold pack if you don't want to buy this first aid kit
132
that has essentially everything you need if you have a cut
133
or a scrape you can also buy band-aids this is the largest box of band-aids it's 15 dollars
134
and the smallest and the cheapest box of band-aids
135
that they have is one dollar
136
and 49 cents above the bandages are thermometers this is a thermometer
137
if you're feeling warm if you're feeling hot you may need to check your temperature
138
and you check your temperature with a thermometer
139
if your body temperature is above 98.6 fahrenheit you may have a fever
140
that is called a fever and a a fever is a common symptom of a cold or flu.
141
This is a thermometer.
142
The most common areas where you can take your temperature are under your tongue, under your armpit, or your forehead.
143
So they have a thermometer specifically for your forehead.
144
This thermometer is the cheapest thermometer at $7.99.
145
And then the prices vary.
146
This thermometer is $12.89.
147
This thermometer is $24.99, $39.99, and the most expensive thermometer is the forehead thermometer at $49.99.
148
And last but not least, what happens if you can't fall asleep?
149
What is that called?
150
If you're having trouble sleeping during the night, if you keep waking up, well, that is called insomnia.
151
So what are some good meds, over-the-counter meds?
152
Because remember, I'm in the over-the-counter aisle.
153
I do not need a prescription.
154
So what are some over-the-counter meds that can help you fall asleep and stay asleep?
155
This is melatonin, but these are melatonin gummies and melatonin helps you fall asleep faster,
156
stay asleep longer, and is 100% drug-free because remember this is an over-the-counter medication.
157
They also have another form of melatonin.
158
It is a fast-dissolve tablet.
159
This is a tablet and these are gummies.
160
Another form of melatonin is this liquid form.
161
This is Z-Quil and it's a nighttime sleep aid so this will help you fall asleep.
162
I I don't think I need this medication, melatonin, because I don't have trouble falling asleep and can fall asleep right away.
163
Oh wait, are we still recording?
164
Lastly, what do you call this type of pain?
165
When you have a lot of pain in your stomach and your tummy and your belly, what do you call it?
166
that is called a stomach ache and you may get a stomach ache if you ate something that is spoiled, if you have cramps, if you're constipated.
167
There are so many different reasons why people have stomach aches.
168
So what is the remedy?
169
How do you reduce your ache?
170
Right behind me this is the digestive health section where you can find things for your stomach
171
because this is your digestive area.
172
The most common remedy to reduce your ache or your pain is Pepto-Bismol.
173
This is a chewable tablet that you will swallow
174
and it is a five symptom relief for nausea heartburn indigestion upset stomach
175
or diarrhea another good over-the-counter med to decrease your stomach ache
176
is this right here these are tablets tums tablets it's an antacid
177
that will reduce the acid in your stomach i'm kind of like a kid
178
so i like taking tums because i like the flavor of tums
179
because it tastes like fruit but i only take these
180
when i have a stomach ache and this is a chewable tablet
181
so i can swallow this easily i just taught you guys some common over-the-counter meds
182
that can help you relieve symptoms like a cold
183
or flu right behind me is a pharmacy in the pharmacy
184
they have prescription medication what is a prescription a prescription is written approval by a doctor
185
that allows you to take this medication
186
because some medications may be harmful for example a prescription medication
187
like insulin would not be found in the over-the-counter aisle where
188
we were at before it would be found inside the pharmacy
189
so how do you get a prescription medication you will go to the doctor's office
190
and if you have diabetes he will write a prescription down of insulin
191
and he will send
192
that prescription to the pharmacy where you will stand in line like these people are to pick up your prescription medication.
193
Okay guys, I'm finally outside of Kroger and finished with this video.
194
I have to admit it was a bit tough to record this type of video
195
because I got kicked out of two pharmacies, but thanks to Kroger for allowing me to record inside and for not kicking me out.
196
I hope you guys have learned a lot of pharmacy vocab
197
and I hope you guys are a little bit more confident to ask someone for help
198
if you're inside of a pharmacy like Kroger, CVS, or Walgreens.
199
I hope you guys like this video.
200
Stay healthy.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
