Sedating Antihistamine Policy

Manor Pharmacy is aware that from time to time we all suffer from sleeping difficulties. Whether this is due to a change in shift patterns, or a period of stress. This is why Manor Pharmacy provides assistance for customers struggling to sleep by selling popular over the counter sedating antihistamines like Nytol and Phenergan Night Time. 

Unfortunately, sedating antihistamines tend to be frequently misused. In order to ensure supplies made are appropriate, we have set our below the minimum duration of time we expect between orders and the maximum amount that may be ordered. This means that there is clear unambiguous guidance to ensure that we retail medicines in a safe and professional manner, minimising the risk of medication misuse.  

The interval time for each product is based on using each product at the maximum permitted daily dose as set out in the product information leaflet. Manor Pharmacy reserves the right to cancel any order where we suspect medication misuse.

If you find that you regularly need to take medicines to help you sleep you should speak to your GP and learn about lifestyle changes you can make to improve your sleep habits.
