THE Pharmaceutical Society of
Australia has opened availability of
its new protocol for dealing with the
rescheduling of chloramphenicol
(PD Tue) to all pharmacists - not
just PSA members.
The protocol is related to the 01
May move of chloramphenicol to
S3 and was released to PSA
members only earlier this week.
“But due to the importance of the
protocol in patient care, it has been
decided to make it available to all
pharmacists on the PSA public
website,” said PSA national
president, Warwick Plunkett.
“Overwhelmingly this protocol
has been praised as a very useful
reference for pharmacists and
members felt there was a public
service in making it more widely
available,” he said.
