I am prescribed an OTC medication as I have a chronic sleep condition, Its promathezine which is generally used in anti histamines and travel sickness tablets. I get them on a weekly basis, they are tiny and very occasionally i drop one, but usually find them, however this week I couldnt find the little bastard anywhere, as it was saturday I went to my pharmacy and explained the situation and attempted to buy a packet avomine ( have had them many times) and was told as I was prescribed them, I wasnt allowed to buy them. I can understand the logic if it was co-codomal or nurofen plus both of which contan a controlled drug, but avomine is safe for older kids, non addictive, im furious tbh, do any of you lovely people know the legalaties

Go to another pharmacy and don't tell them you are prescribed them. It's not relevant, is it?
