Before I start, I’d like to say I love the NHS and this isn’t having a go at the Drs, nurses etc (it’s more of an admin thing).
My lb has been prescribed amoxicillin. The dose is 3 x 5ml per day for 7 days (so 105ml for the full prescription). In order for the pharmacy to fulfil this they have to give my 2 100ml bottles so I’m wasting most of the 2nd bottle. Now I understand that the dose for this medicine will be different for older children but this seems like a ridiculous waste.
Wibu to think it wouldn’t be that hard to make a 105ml bottle (or other convenient bottle sizes for other common doses)?!x
