Phenergan OTC in uk!

Postby UKmommy » Jul 30, 2005 8:58 am

Hi for all you americans living in the UK or just UKers, Phenergan is over the counter over here! Yes, to my great and lovely surprise, just as I found out I was preggers over here, I noticed Ph behind the counter and used it from day one, I am sure that is what alleviated my HG in second pregnancy over here. Took too many of them and was out of it all the time but I only threw up when I was awake!

Wow! I'm sure this info will help someone...

It's ridiculous how one country approves something for over the counter and another one doesn't eh?

Yes I got phenergan OTC until my dr finally gave me some. Some chemists have Avomine which is the same thing. I went to one pharmacy and asked for phenergan and they told me they don't have that name but Avomine is the same thing.
