The New Zealand Formulary
(NZF) has launched a new
formulary specially for children,
incorporating medication expertise
from hospitals and paediatricians.
According to the NZ Pharmacy
Today publication, eventually
users will be able to easily “click”
between the adult and children’s
editions to compare and contrast
the equivalent pages for the same
conditions or drugs.
The NZF, which launched just over
18 months ago, is an “independent
resource providing healthcare
professionals with clinically
validated medicines information
and guidance on best practice”.
It’s based on the latest version
of the British National Formulary,
and builds on the information in
NZ’s Universal List of Medicines
which shows all the prescribable
medications in New Zealand.
