Chemist 4 U don't just use manufacturer's descriptions. We use medical content writers to research the products and provide useful information in an easy to understand format.
We then have our qualified pharmacists check the content for both quality and accuracy.
We think that this is the level of service our customers should expect from us.
We don't think you should accept any less online.

Having a cough is never a good thing. A cough can often lead to other problems, such as a sore throat. Dealing with a cough can be difficult when there are different types of a cough and knowing which one you are suffering from can make all the difference when it comes to treating it.
