A pharmacist has revealed which remedy is best for treating those suffering with winter lurgy. It can be difficult to know the best course of action when it comes to relieving your symptoms at home - but the secret to getting better has come to light.
While paracetamol and ibuprofen are often the first things people reach for when they're feeling under the weather, they may not always work best for your ailment, as reported by The Mirror. The publication recently spoke to a pharmacist to find out how to treat some of the most common symptoms of the dreaded winter lurgy.
Abbas Kanani, the superintendent pharmacist at Chemist Click, explained that there are some occasions where paracetamol will work best, while ibuprofen will work better on others - but in some cases you shouldn't take either. If you're suffering from a high temperature, paracetamol is said to be the best course of action.
