Duloxetine
No, this was not a
wind-up, and yes, it really is not an OH problem, but please see an edited,
cut & paste version of my individual reply to Paul (not wanting to block up
jiscmail, but given this is another query about my initial question, I though I
should put the record straight).
I do have a problem with one of my clients, who has complex mental
health issues. He had admitted to me that he had stopped taking his
medication. I finally persuaded him to go back to his GP and ask to
re-start the medication. He called me today to say that he could get some
of the prescription made up, but not the Duloxetine. I didn't know whether
to believe him or not - and this would make a difference to my advice to
management regarding how to deal with him. I thought if I asked the
question on jiscmail I would get some helpful advice (which, as usual was
forthcoming) Perhaps I should have put more details in my question so that
you could see which angle I was coming from.
So perhaps we could close this thread now. Once I
get a definite answer from the suppliers I will let you all
know.
Cheers
Jane

Duloxetine
Maybe it my sense of humour or was that a real
issue posted on jiscmail re the above....when I first saw the email re short
supplies of Duloxetine following christmas, I had a chuckle to myself
and thought that this was probably apt and only meant
as a light hearted joke from the sender.
Maybe it was???
No it does not really apply to
OH
Kind Regards
Debbie

Hi all,
does this really matter to OH professionals? Surely
we're not involved in prescribing the stuff are we?
