Committee Recommendations (1)

04 Sep 24 - Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC)

These drugs falls under the responsibility of NHS England Specialised Commissioning and should therefore not be prescribed in Primary Care.

Clinicians / specialists within the Acute setting should only prescribe in line with their Trust formulary / pharmacy advice.

GPs should ensure that patient medication records include any medicine for which prescribing remains the responsibility of secondary or tertiary care. This will ensure that GP records, which are accessed by other healthcare providers, are a true and accurate reflection of the patient’s medication
