Primary prescribers , what are they?
are they the same as independent prescribers or are they completely different?

Any help would be great!
Thank you

Off-label is prescribing outside the product licence.
The uses within the product licence are detailed in the SmPC (or SPC for short) these are accessible on the internet at <<www.medicines.org.uk>>
Some of the unlicenced, therefore off label uses are mentioned in the BNF.
<<bnf.org>>

I'll let someone else take the prescribers part of the question
