Stay healthy

Make sure you have some over-the-counter remedies for common seasonal illnesses in your medicine cabinet. This could include: 

• paracetamol and ibuprofen for pain relief - check the label or speak to your pharmacist to check it's suitable for you 
• indigestion remedies such as an antacid 
• first aid  

Remember that medicines go out of date, so don't overstock your medicine cabinet. Always follow the advice on the pack, and if your symptoms continue - or are severe - get further advice.
