Has anyone seen Aveeno Colloidal Bath Powder on sale in the UK?

I have sent Aveeno an email as it's on their UK product list

Has anyone got the NHS to prescribe it?

Thanks

When dd1 was a baby her (then) GP prescribed Aveeno Colloidal products for her. I didn't know anything about them. The pharmacist was v impressed with the GP for her 'alternative and forward thinking'

oh, and given that it's mostly oat flour (unlike the Aveeno bath oil which is mostly liquid paraffin), have you tried using just oat flour, or whole oats tied in a muslin to avoid bits, in the bath?

thanks
I had also thought about doing the oats thing

at the price
paid $8 in the US so might try to get it on prescription
