MULTIPLE PACKS
Dispensing multiple packs or multiple repeats of prescription medication
- As pharmacists we must always comply explicitly with your doctors prescribed directions this includes the quantity of the prescription goods to be supplied. Therefore the only time we can supply an increased quantity of a prescribed medicine is if the doctor prescribes that quantity for you.
AUTHORITY PRESCRIPTION
- Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS.
Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health.
Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number).
Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication.
But still pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has the necessary Authority code.

In some people, Natrilix may cause a reduction in the amount of potassium in the blood. Sometimes the doctor may take a blood test to make sure that the amount of potassium and some other substances in the blood known as 'electrolytes' are at the right level. In very rare instances, where this shortage of potassium becomes severe, people may experience some or all of the first four unwanted effects listed above at the same time. Should this occur, it is important that you contact your doctor immediately.
Tell your doctor immediately or go to accident and emergency at your nearest hospital if the any of signs below occur. It is called Stevens Johnson Syndrome and is very rare but potentially serious. The signs of Stevens Johnson syndrome consist of a rash made up of purple spots with occasional blisters most often found on the front of the arms and legs, neck and around the ears.
