Pharmacists set to prescribe for shingles under expanded trial
Skin conditions have been added to the NSW pharmacy pilot to include eczema and impetigo.
Pharmacists in NSW will soon begin prescribing first line treatments for uncomplicated herpes zoster with an expansion of the trial to include some skin conditions starting next month.
From 12 July they will also be able to prescribe topical treatments for dermatitis and mild plaque psoriasis under the expanded pilot.
