DUBLIN, Ireland – September 24, 2010 – This is Croydon Today’s Anna Edwards and Rachel Bayne report on local pharmacies stocking new over-the-counter paternity testing kits.

Barkers Chemist, in Church Street, Croydon; Goldmantle Pharmacy, in Featherbed Lane, Forestdale; The Parade Pharmacy, in Thornton Road, Croydon; and McCoig Pharmacy, in Wickham Road, Shirley, which are part of the Medipharmacy Group, started selling the kits this week.

Until now over the counter sales were limited to a small number of pharmacies in central London.
