Medicines not prescribed on the NHS
The Integrated Care Partnership (ICP) does not directly recommend prescribing over-the-counter medication that is available to buy from local pharmacies of supermarkets for children or adults.
The reasons for this are as follows:
- Patients should keep a small supply of simple treatments in their own medicine cabinet so they are able to manage minor ailments at home.
- Patients have a responsibility to look after themselves and their children where possible and manage self-limiting minor ailments with support from their local pharmacy if needed.
- All these medicines are widely available from supermarkets and pharmacies at reasonable cost.
- Many of these treatments are more expensive when prescribed on the NHS compared to when they are purchased in pharmacies or supermarkets.
- The NHS belongs to everybody and the ICP must ensure that its resources are used in the best possible way for all patients.
