Maybe worth just phoning the pharmacy? I find the pharmacists generally to be very helpful so should be able to tell you... I would assume it is okay but definitely best to check! Hope your husband recovers well from Covid and you manage to stay negative..

Will phone in the morning as been a bit iffy today. He’s doing better than me and I’m negative but he tested on his 6 day and it came back positive so we are in Scotland so need to isolate till it’s his 10 day .but because he’s been isolating in the dinning room and it’s getting his meals on a tray delivered by me. He just has sore throat and for about 3days just had to rest .let’s hope next text is negative ., hope your doing ok

Yes doing okay; my daughter (aged 29) got Covid beg of Sept and for 7 days she had all meals delivered to her bedroom door! Fortunately, my other daughter, husband and myself remained negative. Hopefully, your husband will test negative shortly and be able to come out of isolation.
