Product Information

This is emphasised in the National Health Service England 2020/2021 Network Contract Directed Enhanced Service (DES) specification which requires primary care networks (PCNs) to invite patients who are prescribed 10 or more medications for a structured medication review with an appropriately trained clinical pharmacist or general practitioner.

For example, if you take one medication in the morning and at bedtime, we will put these tablets into the morning and bedtime slots for all 28 days. These cases are not selected on the grounds of typicality but for their capacity to situate polypharmacy within a social context and challenge normative biomedical conceptualisations of polypharmacy. I can do it myself, it gives me a little exercise…it can wait a little while before I need the service…I can do it myself now. You simply push open the compartment for the right time of day and take the tablets out of the pack.She goes on: ‘In the evening, I take a metformin after a meal, on its own, and then—about no later than 10 o’clock—I take a co-codamol and carbamazepine and something beginning with ‘E’ which is a cholesterol tablet. We focus on patients who were dispensed all of their medications in their original packaging, where the burden of organisational work sits squarely with the patient. His medicines mean ‘survival…I have to take them for life to keep me alive’ but at the same time they ‘get on my nerves’ and ‘I wouldn’t take any of them by choice…but I don’t have any choice. This entails a painstaking process of using tweezers as a tool to isolate, break off and remove the backing from relevant cells of the dosette, then carefully removing and/or adding the relevant medicines, sealing the cell up again and attending to all the associated paperwork and electronic documentation.

Pharmacists seem to take too long filling prescriptions, ask too many questions, and interfere in doctor/patient.As previous scholars have shown, there are practices of resistance, 33 and self-regulation, 34 within an overall context of reluctant acceptance of medicines as a way of life. Omnicell's single-dose heat seal cards require heat sealing equipment, but the cards are more cost-effective than cold-seal packaging. For these patients, as well as patients who have memory problems that keep them from remembering how and when to dose medications, using blister pack medication at home supports good health outcomes by helping to ensure that medicine is taken on the right day, in the right amount, at the right time.
