The Medicines Act 1968 and its regulations authorize the supply and administration of prescription only medicines (POMs). The 1968 Act generally requires an appropriate practitioner to provide a prescription for the supply of such drugs. The Prescription Only Medicines (Human Use) Order 1997, allows for a more flexible approach to the supply and administration of prescription only medicines through the use of Patient Specific Directions (PSDs) and Patient Group Directions (PGDs). This article outlines the legal requirements for a valid prescription, PSD and PGD.
1968年《药品法》及其法规授权仅可凭处方供应和使用的药品(POMs)。1968年法案通常要求有资质的从业者开具此类药品供应的处方。1997年《仅可凭处方使用药品(供人使用)令》允许通过使用患者特定用药指示(PSD)和患者群体用药指示(PGD),对仅可凭处方使用药品的供应和使用采取更灵活的方式。本文概述了有效处方、PSD和PGD的法律要求。
