Formulary
The Devon Formulary promotes safe, effective, and economic prescribing across primary and secondary care in Devon.
It provides clinical guidance on the management of a wide variety of common conditions, including locally recommended drug choices presented in a recognisable traffic light classification.
The Devon Formulary is not a restrictive list, but a recommendation drawn up after widespread consultation with local prescribers and in collaboration with NHS Devon ICB, Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital and North Devon District Hospital), Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust, University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust, Devon Partnership NHS Trust, and Livewell Southwest.
Drugs A-Z
Browse drug names by A to Z (generically) with hyperlinks to drug entries.
Drug entries describe the medicinal forms, indications, doses, indicative prices, safety updates, preferred brands where noted, and other considerations involved in the use of a drug included in the Devon Formulary.
Treatment Summaries
The Devon Formulary uses a therapeutic classification system based on and closely following the BNF.
Additional chapters, sections, and paragraphs have been created to include appliances/ preparations, or to further sub classify within existing areas.
Shared Care Guidelines
Formal Shared Care agreements which enable continued prescribing and monitoring of specialist medicines in primary care.
