FOLLOWING the recent launch of a new, faster, easier-to-use and access app by the publishers of the British National Formulary (BNF) and British National Formulary for Children (BNFC), the UK's National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has confirmed that its own in-house BNF app will be withdrawn later this year.
"Aimed at prescribers, pharmacists and other health and social care professionals, the BNF and BNFC provide details of the medicines licensed in the UK and how they should be prescribed, including their side-effects, contra-indications and doses," NICE said.
