Patient packs

Too much common sense

From Mr C. J. Cairns, FRPharmS

I thoroughly enjoyed John Wilson's “Broad Spectrum” article on patient packs (PJ, July 5, p12). Every word made sense and his suggestions were completely practical. Appropriate bodies — Prescription Pricing Authority, Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee, National Pharmaceutical Association, etc — should act now to call for immediate implementation of his suggestions. The only barrier I see is that they are based on too much common sense.
