Description:

The pharmacy industry is trying to assess the likely impact of a £128 million government move to stop GPs writing prescriptions for 'low-priority' items. You could soon be stopped from getting travel jabs, gluten-free foods and omega-3 supplements on the NHS.

Galen Rosenberg, owner of the Maple Leaf Pharmacy spoke to Nigel Cassidy to discuss this further.
