Important for anyone who uses these medicines 😮
Users of "very common medicines" are being asked not to buy in bulk as shoppers are being warned of shortages on pharmacy shelves.
Birmingham Mail reports that high street chemists and outlets have been impacted by the shortages. Officials are urging shoppers not to overbuy any limited items, to ensure other patients aren't left "high and dry". "Pharmacists are spending a lot of time trying to ensure we get drips of medicines coming through – at least one variant of each – so patients are not left completely high and dry. It's not just children's painkillers that are affected – it's a range of other very common medicines including Sterimar congestion relief nasal spray for babies, Lemsip, Gaviscon, Optrex and [constipation treatment] Senokot.
The shortages come just months after the last warnings. Earlier in January, the Association of Independent Multiple Pharmacies announced a shortage of cold medicines used to treat winter illnesses.
