Pharmacists secure UTI prescribing powers in NSW before clinical trial results
The final evaluation of the trial is not due until 2025.
The NSW Government will permanently allow pharmacists to diagnose UTIs and prescribe antibiotics despite not seeing the results from its 10-month trial.
From 1 June, all pharmacists who undergo the state’s training program and have a consulting room can provide UTI consultations, says NSW Minister for Health Ryan Park.
