[QUOTE="TashT1, post: 2410159, member: 526953"] Changing GP surgeries won’t do much, they are being integrated into Primary Care Network, depending on where you live there might not be more than one PCN & prescribing practices will be the same. You might get some support from a practice pharmacist that works with GPs in the PCN. They have a meds management role & might see things differently to your GP. They can argue that it’s cost effective in the long run. I would also contact my county councillor who could put you in touch with the Heath and Well-being committee, you can lobby through them to change prescribing practices. Not easy routes admittedly but it might be worth fighting for. [/QUOTE]
