- paracetamol or ibuprofen
- medicated lozenges containing a local anaesthetic, antiseptic, or anti-inflammatory medicine

what Our client’s say
Switched to Swift from Rowlands; what a difference. It's basic stuff really... They are polite, helpful and competent, everything Rowlands are not. Frankly I had forgotten that it was possible to pick up ones medications without being treated like dirt every time.
