Closed Ban the sale of all medicines to under-18s

Closed on

The Government should ban the sale of all medicines to under-18s to help protect them from the risk of overdosing. If they need any medicine, their parents should have to buy it for them. This needs to be addressed urgently, should be same restrictions as applied with alcohol.

There must be a law with same age restrictions as alcohol, for any shop bought drug in place to protect our children. This is imperative and needed as soon as possible
