Ready prescriptions — dose, duration, counselling, reference wording

Reference wording for common primary-care regimens, by condition. Each card opens to what the cited guidance and the product information (SPC) state — indication · contraindications · who it suits (age range, children, pregnancy, breastfeeding) · Pharmacy First eligibility · drug table (dose · freq · route · duration) · self-care and over-the-counter advice · alternative regimens · counselling points · follow-up · red flags · patient leaflets · example record wording · source links — with links to the full protocol where one exists. Self-care cards are advice only: the products are bought over the counter, not prescribed.

💊 Doses are written in our own words from NICE guidance and the manufacturers’ product information (SPC), for education. Always check the current SPC, local formulary and the patient before prescribing. A few rows give a children’s dose (for example mg/kg); those rows say “Children: check the children’s SPC” and link to it. Links: SPC (emc) · SPC · children’s SPC (children).
