I was sold some Demazin for my DS a month ago, and when I told another pharmacist a few days later he was quite outraged, and seemed to think that it shouldn't have been given to me. I didn't ask for it specifically, the pharmacist just gave it to me. I rang the first pharmacy to let them know, as TBH, I was a bit annoyed to be given something that I shouldn't have. The guy I spoke to owns the pharmacy and was similarly upset, that one of his staff members was not clear on the guidelines. He said he would speak to all of his staff to make sure they were clear that it couldn't be given to under 2s without a script.

To me that sounds like the ruling is already effective? Though I'm not sure.
