Although your pharmacy may not stock most of the above there are some key things you will sell that are covered by age restrictions.

Such products include-

  • Razor blades (excludes those with 2mm or less exposed blade)
  • Psychoactive substances – such as aerosols, nail varnish, nail varnish remover

For some of the products listed above you will notice that they are only recommended age restrictions, however there can be punishments if these products are sold knowingly to underage people who may abuse them. As they are only recommend age restrictions, they are usually implemented locally, or by national chains such as supermarkets to prevent harm to children.
