Back to School

September is coming, and so are the headlice notes home, the fussy-eater immune dips, and the "I forgot my hand sanitiser" mornings. Chemco Pharmacy's Back to School collection has it covered — trusted vitamins, headlice treatments and everyday essentials to get your kids through the term feeling their best.

Kids' Vitamins & Immune Support

Long school days and packed lunches can leave little bodies short on nutrients. Our range of children's multivitamins and gummies — from Vitabiotics Wellkid, L'il Critters, Haliborange, Swedish Nutra and Revive Active — deliver vitamin C, zinc, DHA and multi-nutrient support to help with energy, focus and immunity when it matters most.

Headlice Treatment & Prevention

Where kids gather, headlice follow. Treat active infestations fast with Lyclear and Nitty Gritty shampoos, sprays and combs, then stay a step ahead with daily defence sprays that help stop headlice taking hold in the first place.

Digestive Health & Everyday Wellbeing

Keep the essentials within reach — probiotics like Alflorex and Bio-Kult for tummy troubles, hand sanitiser for the school run, and Calpol on standby for whatever the term throws at you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What age are these Back to School products suitable for?
Products in this collection are formulated for children, from infants to teens. Always check the individual product label for specific age recommendations before use.

How often do headlice outbreaks happen at school?
Headlice are common wherever children are in close contact, and outbreaks tend to rise when school resumes. Regular checking and early treatment help stop the spread.

Can headlice treatments and prevention sprays be used together?
Yes. Treatment shampoos and sprays (like Lyclear or Nitty Gritty) are used to eliminate an active infestation, while defence sprays are used daily as a preventative to reduce the risk of picking up headlice at school.

Do children need a multivitamin if they eat a balanced diet?
A varied, balanced diet is always the priority. Multivitamins can help fill nutritional gaps, particularly for fussy eaters or during busy school terms, but should complement rather than replace a healthy diet.

Are these products available for collection in-store?
Yes, all products in this collection can be reserved online for in-store collection at your local Chemco Pharmacy branch, or delivered nationwide across Ireland.

Can I ask a pharmacist for advice on the right product for my child?
Yes, our pharmacists are happy to advise on the most suitable product for your child's age and needs — just ask in-store or contact your local branch.
