Does anybody know how much it is for piriton, I have tried googeling but it's not coming up with much, I can't find my cash card and have about £2.13 in cash is this enough? Do chemists do a cheaper own brand ???
Oh....I'm not going to lie to you......At the end of the day, when alls said and done......do you know what I mean.........TIDY

Do you need Piriton syrup or tablets? Branded Piriton tablets will be about £3 but they may have a generic Chlorpheniramine maleate tablet which is chemically identical to Piriton but made by another pharma company0

Buy the el-cheapo own brand version.. it'll do the same job, it's just in a different box!
You'd be amazed the number of people who fall for the pharmaceutical industries branding of products0 -
Aye - go for the generic Chlorphenamine. Becareful though, it can leave you zonked out...April Grocery Challenge £81/£1200

I still doubt that you would be able to get a generic brand for £2.13 though!0

Asda do tablets for hayfever and allergy relief that are £1.38 and £1.14
\still a antihistimine.
