I usually just buy small packs of Paracetamol when I go shopping, as needed for my arthritis, but wanted to have some in stock just in case, especially as I can’t take Ibuprofen. I asked for some to be prescribed, when I did an online prescription, just collected them, 250!
After all, they are cheap as chips over the counter, but you can’t buy many, even if they are available.
I know the idea is that too many all at once will kill you, but then so would many of the medications we have!
Yet another example of us being expected to care and not always treated as responsible adults. How much a week are you saving the state??? Surely a few paracetamol are nothing in comparison to that???
The advice keeps changing. A few weeks ago the shelves were emptied of paracetamol because the experts told us Ibuprofen was no good for coronavirus symptoms.
In the last few days that advice has changed and we can take Ibuprofen.
