💊 What Are Over-the-Counter Medicines?

Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines are products you can buy without a prescription. They treat common, minor health issues and are perfectly legal to sell in convenience stores that follow UK regulations.

Common OTC medicines include:

• Paracetamol / Panadol

• Ibuprofen

• Cold & flu remedies (e.g., Lemsip, Strepsils)

• Antacids (e.g., Gaviscon, Rennie)

• Allergy relief (e.g., Piriton, Loratadine)

• Cough syrups

• Plasters, antiseptics & first-aid essentials
