MeReC Bulletin - Implementing key therapeutic topics: 1

The National Prescribing Centre has published a MeReC Bulletin (PDF), the first in a series of three, that focuses on the therapeutic areas of the QIPP agenda.

The topics covered in this bulletin are:

  • Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
  • Antibiotic prescribing - especially quinolones and cephalosporins
  • High dose inhaled corticosteroids in asthma

For each of the therapeutic topic areas the evidence base is summarised and current prescribing data are reviewed.

Action: Clinicians who prescribe in any of the areas above and who are striving to deliver value for money while maintaining or improving the quality of care will find this information is useful and informative.
