Why over-the-counter medicines aren’t prescribed for minor conditions

Your GP, nurse or pharmacist will not generally give you a prescription for medicines that can be bought over the counter for minor health concerns like colds, headaches, hay fever or mild skin conditions.

Buying these directly from your local pharmacy or supermarket means NHS resources can be used for people with more serious conditions, such as cancer, diabetes or heart problems.

Your pharmacy team can give you expert advice, recommend the right treatment and let you know how long you can expect symptoms to last. If you’re unsure, just ask – they’re here to help.
