Conspicuous by their absence: rigor, evidence-based facts, transparency, gold-standard science, and identity of authors. Other than that a tight and tidy report reflecting Bobby’s version of the truth.

NHS Pharmacy First Scotland
@publichealthscot.bsky.social
#pharmsky

www.publichealthscotland.scot/publications...
This regular release by Public Health Scotland (PHS) presents information on the number and characteristics of patients accessing NHS Pharmacy First Scotland and Community Pharmacy Unscheduled Supply (CPUS) services. Pharmacy First Scotland enables community pharmacists to advise and provide treatment for a range of common self-limiting conditions. CPUS enables community pharmacists to provide patients with up to one prescribing cycle of their repeat medicines and appliances, where obtaining a prescription has not been possible. 35% of the Scottish population (1,895,836) used Pharmacy First Scotland in the most recent 12 months reported (October 2023 to September 2024). The number of people using Pharmacy First Scotland at least once each quarter increased by 60% in the three years from 464,363 in July - September 2021 to 743,121 in July - September 2024. This trend can be seen in both males and females, and across all age groups and deprivation quintiles. Of the 743,121 people accessing the service in the most recent reported quarter, 62% were female. The highest rate of Pharmacy First use was in the 0-9 years age group (205 per 1,000 population in the most recent quarter). This has been the case since reporting began. Use of Pharmacy First Scotland can be seen across all levels of deprivation in the population. In the most recent quarter reported, 45% of patients lived in the two most deprived quintiles.
