Definite remedy (8)

I believe the answer is:

specific

I believe this is a double definition.

'definite' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'remedy' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for specific that I've seen before include "Particular, special" , "Particular, distinct" , "Explicit or in detail" , "Well-defined" , "Clear and exact" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
