I agree. The BMA are not advising on any differentiation & as a result GP Practices are switching off software that also aids safe prescribing. Also, advising cost effective alternatives should not be seen as a negative, we (including the public) know the limitations of the NHS budget

This headline doesn’t sit well with me. I can’t read the article so it might be an unfair headline but what about what patients want? Patient data is being used as a pawn, let’s not forget it’s data that belongs to patients and surely we should get a say in what happens to our data?

Good, balanced article but please change the sentence ‘They have side effects & can cause serious complications, especially for people who aren’t prescribed them by a doctor’. Other clinicians can prescribe safely. I think it should say ‘…for people who don’t get them from a qualified prescriber’
