MCS items/exceeded quotas

[bobbin]

My job doesn't involve stressing about things being mcs.there's nothing I can do so whata the point? Hopefully not all pharmacists would think that pharmacy is just about supplying people with their medicines.

It's not the only purpose, but supplying people with their medicines is certainly one of the main purposes of pharmacy! I don't think there's reason to get stressed, but it's not true that there's nothing you can do. You can let doctors know of alternatives to MCS medicines eg. losartan and bendro instead of CoAprovel. For some medicines, you can use manufacturers direct supply arrangements.

To hospital pharmacists....

How much trouble are hospitals having at the moment obtaining branded drugs?
