Medication Reviews
You may occasionally be asked to discuss medication with the Doctor or Advanced Nurse Practitioner before your next prescription is due. This is to ensure that your medications are still appropriate for you.
Medication changes can only be authorised by a Doctor or Nurse Prescriber. Patients are recommended to have their medication reviewed regularly to ensure it remains appropriate for you to take.
