Forgotten Pills

[Caran]

Originally posted in B & S but all in bed.
Will it matter, I have forgotten to bring my pills on holiday. I have blood pressure ones and cholesterol tablets. I will be without them for 6 days.

Better ask Sqad, he will probably be here in the morning.

Go to the nearest chemist and see if they will let you buy some.

I doubt it will matter for 6 days - which country are you in carandog?

Tomorrow you should be able to go to a local GP. Register as a temp patient and ask for them to contact your GP surgery for drugs details. They can then issue a script for 7 days of pills.

You then take to local chemist as usual.

My daughter did this last summer when she visited and forgot some important drugs.

Local doctor should be able to help you in the morning. You will just have to register as a visitor. Get there early if you can, just in case they shut early with it being Christmas eve. Have a lovely Chrismas. X

Are you holidaying in the UK? If so, find telephone and fax details of local chemist, then ring your GP and they maybe willing to fax through a prescription. Or go to local Walk In Healthcentre in the area. If overseas, call your GP anyway and see what they suggest.

Maidup, we are in Guernsey.
Jemisa no chance!
Don't know whether to wing it with a view to coming off them or not.

Coming off BP tablets on your own accord is rather wreckless in my opinion. A local pharmacy will advise you and more than likely be able to supply you with the amount you will use till you return.

Happy Christmas
