Can diabetics take?

Sometimes I get a headache or a minor cold, and I usually just take something from the chemist. But now that I have diabetes, I'm worried about what I can and cannot take. Is there a general rule for diabetics regarding over-the-counter medications?

The question is incomplete, could you please specify what you want to take? Having PCOS makes me very cautious about taking any random over-the-counter pill, so I understand your concern. Please complete the sentence so we can reply properly.
