Granta Medical Practices

28/04/2026

As we head into May and the Bank holiday weekends, please don’t forget you can treat many minor illnesses at home with a well-stocked medicine cabinet. Colds and coughs, sore throats, and upset stomachs can all be treated by having a supply of health care essentials such as pain relief (paracetamol / ibuprofen), cough and sore throat remedies, a first aid kit, upset stomach treatment, rehydration treatment and heartburn / indigestion treatment.
Your local pharmacy can give expert advice on minor illnesses such as headaches and upset stomachs, bites and stings.
NHS111 can give you non-emergency help if you are feeling unwell, unsure or anxious. You can ring them on 111 or find them online https://111.nhs.uk/
