The Cheapest Hayfever Remedies Article Discussion

  • I couldn’t agree more with you Chris. It is definitely the cheapest place to buy Cetirizine Dihydrochloride tablets in bulk. If anyone finds anything better please do let me know! I also hunted around for a long time and this is by far the cheapest supplier.
  • i used to blast myself with hayfever remedies but prefer not to now. the local honey thing definitely helped me, the other very easy 'natural' remedy (which is also cheap) is chamomile tea - works for me, may make others worse though so go gently at first.

    Check out Sainsbury's own hayfever tablets. They were only 69p for 7 and they do 2 types (can't remember what they are off the the top of my head).

    Also at some point between May and July, Wilkinson do BOGOF on ant-histamines. Just keep a look out for it.

    Hmmmm. Post count of 4, all within a few minutes and all referring to the same advert.

    It's fantastic if we have a new contributor who is independent, but if they have a vested interest it's not so good.

    Poor form replying to my own post .......

    0800 121 4589 is
    BINGHAM PHARMACY.
    DHIREN B.RAVAL
    5 EATON PLACE,
    NOTTINGHAM,
    NG13 8BD

    They are (they tell me) registered (it's a free call - what the heck!) and are listed on a number of local information websites.

    The guy I spoke to was unaware that anyone was promoting them on here and he has taken the details of how to sign up. I did ask that he makes a point of indicating a vested interest. He had wondered where the extra business was coming from ....... sorry motika007 for doubting you.

    Hope that helps someone.

    It's 99p for 7 tablets, not 30. Its £2.99 for 30, Chemist Direct are 58p for 30. They couldnt advise me on postage costs.

    The chemist just phoned. It is 99p for 30 tablets plus 50p postage. It took a bit of tooing and froing but got there in the end ;)

    No wonder Chemist Direct post here, as they are not able to provide good service. I ordered some of their cheap Cetirizine, and other items, 3 weeks ago. Not only have they taken my money, they have failed to respond to 2 emails, and in case you were wondering - no, I have not received any goods.
    I have used chemist-4-u.com twice in the past, and got a good service.

    Chemist Direct have still not provided any goods or any responses, so I am going to report them to the Royal Pharmaceutical Society.
