Question Prescribing Pharmacists

Hi

quick questions for pharmacist prescriber's supplementary or otherwise:

RPSGB guidance document on prescribing pharmacists say you should not dispense if you prescribe. So if you own a shop and are a supplementary prescriber from that premises how does it work. Do you always have to employ a locum or second pharmacist or send the patient to the multiple down the road?

In the current set up is there any incentive to prescribe inappropriately for example a product that you get more profit on or does the requirement to follow guidelines remove this conflict. if not how do you address this aspect of the decision process?

Regards
