The Chemists are now running out of Codeine products as the Government has made law that in Feb'2018 they will be only available via a prescription which will cost squillions.
Now many chemists are completely out of stock and say they can't get any more due to Government phasing in their law.
Others now only sell packs of 12 or maybe 20, before the 40's weren't a problem.

We are one of the very few countries that allow codeine over the counter.
Problem that I see ahead is codeine will go on the black market or worse the Codeine addicts will move up to stronger illegal drugs.

I go shopping for my next door neighbour, one of the items

on his list, is painkillers.

I take his licence to the chemist, as his pain killers contain codeine,

and have never seen a shortage of them, nor a shortage of choices.
