How to use your BNF

This week we talk about how to make sure our patients are at the centre of all our decisions, how to put the MEP into practice. We’ll also go through the principles of medicines optimisation and what constitutes a clinical check. Also we give a shout-out to The Flashcard Pharmcist (insta: @theflashcardpharmacist) for being one of the most beneficial pharmacy accounts out there.
