Public may have to stockpile drugs in no-deal Brexit The public may have to stockpile medicines if there is a no-deal Brexit, industry leaders say.
Martin Sawer, of the Healthcare Distributors Association, told MPs industry was "very concerned" about a no-deal as it could have "catastrophic" consequences for the supply of drugs.
The government has asked firms to start stockpiling a six-week supply of drugs.
Mr Sawer said there was no need for the public to do the same "yet", but the picture could change very quickly. BBC News
