NHS

For over 70 years, Pharmaceutical Press has placed trusted, evidence-based knowledge at the point of care, for NHS healthcare professionals across Great Britain and Northern Ireland to make confident decisions about the safe and effective use of medicines.

We are honoured to have supported the NHS through this period of immense change with access to the national standard in trusted medicines information and practical guidance. Trusted by primary and secondary care professionals, to assist their research and clinical decision-making.

"Since 2010 NHS Education for Scotland has invested in digital library content on behalf of all the NHS and social services workforce including local authority, third and independent sector staff in Scotland. The national subscriptions support the principle of ‘once for Scotland’ and ensures equity of access to evidence for practice and learning for all.

The suite of resources provided through the MedicinesComplete platform are essential to support the day-to-day practice of not only pharmacists and medicines information staff, but also medics, non-medical prescribers and a wide-range of professionals. The key nature of these resources is demonstrated by the consistently high usage and positive feedback we receive.

Health Service Executive (HSE) Ireland

HSE healthcare professionals and other authorised users working in the public health service benefit from online access through the national eHealth library to BNF, BNF for Children, Martindale: The Complete Drug Reference, Martindale’s ADR Checker, Stockley’s Drug Interactions, Drugs in Pregnancy and Lactation, Drug Administration via Enteral Feeding Tubes, ASHP Injectable Drug Information, Agilio: Diagnosis and Treatment Guidance, Critical Illness and Palliative Care Formulary.

“Feedback from pharmacists and other frontline healthcare workers in Ireland is that access to MedicinesComplete “makes their job easier” and in some cases “has changed my working life”. This captures the real life impact of access to specialised drug information resources in a nutshell.

In a time of global pandemic busy healthcare workers need immediate and seamless access to validated, authoritative information at the click of a mouse. This is available to them from any Internet enabled device via MedicinesComplete."
