Manila, Philippines – In an innovative fusion of health and entertainment, Pharmacist Arshie Larga has turned to TikTok to reach out and educate the Filipino community on health and wellness matters. Using the engaging platform, Larga aims to simplify complex medical topics and make them more accessible and understandable to the everyday Filipino.
The ongoing global health crisis inspired Larga’s decision to venture into TikTok. She realized there was an increasing need for reliable health information as myths and misinformation began to circulate at an alarming rate. Her short, digestible videos tackle topics from basic medication guidelines to debunking common health myths.
“I saw a gap in how information was relayed to the masses. Sometimes, medical jargon can be hard to understand. TikTok provides me with a creative space to break down these barriers and convey vital information in a fun, engaging manner,” Larga shared in an exclusive interview.
Her efforts are not going unnoticed. With over half a million followers and millions of views on her most popular videos, Larga has become a beacon of trust in the TikTok community. Parents, young adults, and seniors alike have praised her for her concise and clear explanations.
But Larga doesn’t plan to stop with just TikTok. She hopes to expand her reach through various social media platforms and even contemplates starting a YouTube channel in the future.
As the lines between technology, entertainment, and education continue to blur, influencers like Larga are essential in bridging the gap. Her commitment to her profession and the Filipino community is evident, making her a shining example of how professionals can utilize social media platforms for the greater good.
