SINGAPORE — Demand for over-the-counter flu and cough medicines has"moderated" in the past couple of weeks, said Senior Minister of State for Health Janil Puthucheary on Tuesday .
The surge in demand prompted some Singapore retailers to impose limits on the number of Panadol and Nurofen products each customer can buy. Towards the end of 2022, however, there were temporary shortages of specific brands of medicines used to treat fever, cough and cold due to higher viral infections, he said.Responding to questions from Members of Parliament Saktiandi Supaat and MP He Ting Ru about Singapore's national stockpile of medicines, Dr Puthucheary said the supplies are more than adequate.
The ministry also monitors the stock levels of commonly used medicines and medical supplies, especially when there are exceptional surges in demand or disruptions to supply, Dr Puthucheary said.
