Daily Medication Storage

This has always puzzled me - in the UK the pharmacist keeps the prescription when he dispenses the drugs.

So this advice would mean you need to have two prescriptions!

Have to say, I travel most months and have never bothered to get a second prescription - the box has the pharmacists label with my name on it, I expect that to suffice.

Hi. Just ask for the copy prescription back, they have to give you it as you you/I need it for repeat prescriptions and for your own records. I have to carry a copy of all the drugs that I take in case of accident so Ive had this issue pop up myself.

That's useful to know, I carry that as it's an ingredient in many flu meds and a really useful decongestant.

The other useless trivia is: it's banned by the IOC. So when you've taken it, you do exclude yourself from the Olympic Archery...

Or get yourself a T.U.E. Therapeutic Use Exemption certificate. It allows athletes to take drugs that would otherwise see them banned. If only Alain Baxter had gone to the doctors for his cold, he would still have his medal!
