endorsing an extemporaneous prescription?

[foreversummer]

Hi please can someone help me with this question for my NVQ level 3 course in dispensing.
If I was dispensing a prescription for clobetasone ointment 25% with white soft paraffin 300g, how would I endorse the prescription?
I know I would endorse it ED to claim the additional fee but what else do I endorse? The complete pack sizes and claim broken bulk or special container? Or would I endorse 75g ex 100g eumovate cream, 225g ex 500g white soft paraffin?
Can someone please tell me exactly how I would endorse it?

Seriously though
75g ex 100g eumovate cream (or do you really mean ointment!)
225g ex 500g white soft paraffin

WSP is cat M so you can claim broken bulk
Clobetasone is cat C so you can claim broken bulk


Extemporaneously
Dispensed
To claim an extemporaneously dispensed fee. Not needed for Category E

Thankyou for your reply. Yes sorry I meant 'eumovate ointment' my minds being blown away by too much studying.
Youve made it all alot clearer now! I was getting a bit confused by the different catagories and what they meant. Thanks also for the link.

One point - you need not claim broken bulk as the 100g is a special container.
