Citric Acid to clean steraliser?

[Geordie_Mammy]

Hi girls (and guys?)

I am wanting to use my old phillips avent steraliser for my newborn, but I don't have any more of those little packs of cleaning 'stuff' can't remember what it was called, can I just use citric acid? and where is the best place to get it... would my local chemist sell me it? rather than buying it from ebay (bit wary, could be anything!)

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out

Or use distilled malt vinegar and hot water and leave over night...
