Committee Recommendations (2)
The prescribing clinical network supports Omnitrope® and Genotropin® to be presented as equal first line choices to both children and adults with other devices available as required to allow patient needs to be met.
The PCN members supported this shared care protocol. The network did not feel it was appropriate for GPs to monitor IGF-1 and clarification was requested from consultants regarding monitoring. It was agreed and the shared care amended to reflect this clarification.
