[edit] Objection

About your objection to the Drug Tariff - just because a GP has not heard about it does not mean it is not an important document, worthy of Wikipedia.

In fact you could fail pharmacy registration exams if you do not know your way around it.

All community pharmacies use this document, especailly for pricing. It also gives details on what charges a patient has to pay for drugs e.g. three charges for Heliclear and Tridestra, or one charge for each stocking, not found in BNF or MEP. Also it has all the blacklisted items listed (denoted in the BNF with a NHS in a box with a diagonal line through it).

Please go see their website - http://www.drugtariff.com/

Again this document is not used by GPs generally (though with an increasing number of dispensing GPs maybe they should) but a lot by pharmacists!

I have deleted your objection and put some more info that the Drug Tariff is used by dispensing pharmacists and doctors.

Yours
