BNF (British National Formulary) is a tool used by healthcare professionals to help them make decisions about prescribing and administering medicines. It provides evidence-based information on the selection, prescribing, dispensing, and administration of medicines. It also provides guidance on the safe and effective use of medicines.
When an incorrect dose is prescribed, it is important to take corrective action to ensure the patient receives the correct dose. This could involve changing the dose, changing the route of administration, or changing the frequency of administration. Evidence to support the change could include the patient’s medical history, laboratory results, or other clinical information. It is also important to document the change and the rationale for it in the patient’s medical record.
