I know that over a certain amount of any painkiller eg Nurofen/Paracetamol you have to purchase over the counter. You can't pick them up off the shelf. I think it's over 30 tablets.

A pharmacist has to be present to buy products which have a letter p in a square on the packaging.


These include 32 paracetamol


certain cough mixtures especially dry cough


decongestants as these can't be taken with certain medication


Head lice treatments


Hydrocortisone creams


products containing codeine as this can be abused


plus several other items


Do you actually need names? IF so


Haymine,


Migraleve,


are two that come to mind
