Another state expanding pharmacy prescribing to include acne and nausea

The broadened scheme in WA is expected to be in place by 2027: state government.
WA Health Minister Amber-Jade Sanderson.

The WA Government has given the green light to expand pharmacy prescribing to eventually include acne, nausea, wounds and more.

It said the move was a “logical next step” after allowing pharmacists to treat UTIs last year and extend scripts for the contraceptive pill earlier this year.
