Hi,

I have been trying to register with Pharmacy First so I can take advantage of their cheap hayfever table offer, but I keep getting the same error message - "Either no security code was entered or it did not math the characters in the image". I have tried about 5 times now and am definitely not typing the wrong code in!!!

Is anyone else having this problem?

Thanks!

Was happening for me too. Got in on the fourth attempt. I used lower-case letters.

I registered on Saturday and didn't have any problems. Also I noticed that on the MSE e-mail today it said that delivery can be slow, but I ordered on Saturday and received them today and the use-by date is Jul 2011 :j

I'm having the same problem with the security code. I'll keep trying though!

I must have tried a dozen times but it worked in the end. Thanks.

The top article above refers to diphenhydramine; a drug which is for sale under the Benadryl brand name in the US. In the MSE article we are referring to acrivastine, a newer-type antihistamine which is marketed as Benadryl in the UK, hence our warning

'Be warned if buying Benadryl from the US; there the brand name is attached to products containing diphenhydramine (aka Nytol) which may work, but'll make you very drowsy.'

I hope this helps clear things up.

I have found Hay fever Relief Cetirizine Tablets for 30p for 30 Tablets at Chemist direct. I got 9 month worth for under £6 including postage.

Any new drug including Acrivastine you are still taking part in an experiment, where the side effects are not fully understood yet and may only fully emerge as large numbers of people start taking them.

All of them have the potential to harmfully change heart rhythyms.

2 antihistamines, that were pulled off the market, can cause a very rare and potentially fatal arrhythmia.
