Our policy
We provide prescribing and monitoring for certain medication that is recommended by hospital teams or certain private providers as long as the recommended monitoring criteria are agreed to and met by the patient. This includes medication for ADHD, as well as several rheumatological, dermatological and gastroenterological conditions.
Where monitoring is not adhered to, this can put the GP in a difficult situation, providing medication that is not being properly monitored. We therefore reserve the right to stop providing prescriptions in the situations but would always do our best to try and liaise with the patient to ensure monitoring can continue before taking this step.
