Understanding You Non prescription medications and premenstrual symptoms
You can buy medications such as paracetamol, aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen from your pharmacist or supermarket without the need of a prescription from your doctor. These may help some women to manage mild physical symptoms such as light cramping or headaches they may experience in the lead up to their period. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist to ensure you can take these medications.
