A The rules for prescription only medicines are the same whatever speciality or health setting they are used in. When using prescription only medicines, for example BotuliniumToxin and Lignocane, these must be prescribed by a registered prescriber for an individual patient. This can be an independent nurse prescriber / doctor / dentist. Prescription only medicines are prescribed for an individual patient and must only be used for that patient. Any surplus medicines must be disposed of. Although the nurse prescribers can prescribe BotuliniumToxin and Lignocane, they cannot keep stocks of prescription only medicines.
