Are you a Dr Mum?

Did you know that mum is the first person most 18-34 year olds turn to with their common health problems, before consulting a pharmacist, the internet or even their GP? So popular are mums’ hand-me-down health tips that they handle almost twice as many queries as NHS Direct.

To give busy Dr Mums and their families a helping hand, Panadol has enlisted the help of its Mums Panel, real life mums from around the UK who seek expert advice on suitable pain relief for a variety of common family health issues.

Their useful tips are saved on the index cards below so why not take a look and learn more about what pain relief is most suitable for your family?

What’s your health hearsay?

Ever sipped chicken soup to cure the sniffles? Tried rubbing butter on a burn to sooth it?

More than half of us believe inherited health hints and tips like these, which are passed down through generations. However, they often have no basis in medical fact – and can sometimes make us feel worse, not better.

Myth-busting mums

Panadol has teamed up with its Mums Panel to help bust the nation’s top health myths once and for all. Download your free copy of their myth-busting guide below.

Sandra, a mum of two children and part of Panadol’s Mums Panel explains: “The worrying thing about health hearsay is you inherit it from trusted sources such as your own mum or grandmother and it goes unquestioned because it’s something you’ve grown up with. The result is you go on using all sorts of remedies without really knowing whether or not they work, and then pass them on to the next generation”.
