Personally Administered, Batch Number, Manufacturer

Patients marked as Dispensing in the Registration - Other screen, have Dispensing ticked automatically.

From Therapy - Add, once the item for prescribing has been selected, tick P/Admin if the prescription is to be dispensed in the practice for a non-dispensing patient. In the case of non-dispensing practices, this is normally only vaccinations and some Treatment Room items:

Note - In Scotland and Northern Ireland, ticking P/Admin automatically deselects Print Script. This can be reselected if appropriate.

The prescription is classed as practice administered or personally administered, and should contain the batch number and manufacturer.

  • If available, Batch Number completes with the batch number and the manufacturer and print on the prescription.

  • If the batch number id not automatically available, you should enter the details manually, see Allocating or Adding Batch Numbers. Batch numbers can be added either when adding the therapy, or by the dispenser editing the prescription in which case, the script should not be printed first.

Note - To print this topic select Print in the top right corner and follow the on-screen prompts.
