The current Nurse Prescribers’ Formulary for Community Practitioners continues in its current format and is still available to nurses working in that setting. Nurses will continue to be able to train and act as supplementary prescribers, and in some settings, supplementary prescribing will continue to be the best option. This will also enable them to prescribe Controlled Drugs for other medical conditions, eg drug abuse, in partnership with a doctor.
