Same problem with PGDs...[sigh of despair]

Cornwall was one of the trial areas and all the Drs in the county signed on but we're also allowed to do temporary residents.

We've got:

Chloramphenicol or Fucithalmic for conjunctivitis
Fucidin for impetigo
Trimethoprim for simple UTIs


Bugger! Forgotten the other one!

Ah! It's for nappy rash but I can't think what the cream is.
