In the M.E.P is lists conditions that need to be satisfied to do the supply.
'at the request of a patient:
a)
ii) that treatment with the POM requested has on a previous occasion been prescribed by a Doctor . . . for the person requesting it '
Im trying to remember at Uni we had a time scale we used, ie the item had been prescribed in the past six months, although the MEP just states that the item has to have been previously prescribed by a Doctor.
Any one got any guide lines or just good advice on a time scale?
If I had been prescribed amoxicillin when I was 12 years old I could really do an emergency supply for a five day course since it has previously been prescribed by a Doctor - Surely not!!!!
