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.
PHARMACIST ONLY MEDICINE

CONSUMER MEDICINE INFORMATION
What is in this leaflet
This leaflet is designed to provide you with answers to some common questions about this medicine. It does not contain all the available information and does not take the place of talking with your doctor.
All medicines have risks and benefits.
Your doctor has more information about this medicine than is contained in this leaflet. Also, your doctor has had the benefit of taking a full and detailed history from you and is in the best position to make an expert judgement to meet your individual needs.

What is Prozac used for
Prozac is used to treat:
* depression
* obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
* premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD)
Your doctor may have prescribed Prozac for another reason. Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why Prozac has been prescribed for you.
Prozac belongs to a group of medicines called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). SSRIs are thought to work by their action on brain chemicals called amines which are involved in controlling mood.
Prozac is available only with a doctor's prescription.
There is no specific information available to recommend the use of Prozac in children.
Before taking Prozac
Do NOT take Prozac if:
* you have had an ALLERGIC REACTION to any medicines containing fluoxetine or to any of the inactive ingredients listed in the Ingredients section of this leaflet.
Signs of an allergic reaction may include rash, itching of the skin, shortness of breath and swelling of the tongue or face.
* the packaging is torn or shows signs of tampering.
* the capsules, tablets or liquid do not look quite right.
* the expiry date on the pack has passed.
* you are taking another medicine for depression called a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) or have been taking a MAOI within the last 14 days. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure as to whether or not you are taking a MAOI.
If you do take Prozac while you are taking a MAOI, you may experience shaking (tremor), shivering, muscle stiffness, fever, rapid pulse, rapid breathing or confusion.
Before you start taking Prozac tell your doctor if:
* you are pregnant or intend to become pregnant.
* you are breastfeeding or wish to breastfeed.
* you have had an allergic reaction to any medicine which you have taken previously to treat your current condition.
* you have kidney or liver disease, or if you have diabetes or have ever had fits.
Taking other medicines
Tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines, including any that you buy without a prescription from a pharmacy, supermarket or health food shop.
Some medicines may be affected by Prozac, or may affect how well it works. These include:
* monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), medicines used to treat some types of depression. You should stop taking MAOIs at least two weeks before starting Prozac.
* lithium, a medicine used to treat mood swings and some types of depression
* other medicines for depression or obsessive compulsive disorder
* sleeping tablets or sedatives
* medicines used to relieve anxiety
* medicines used to treat certain mental and emotional conditions, also called antipsychotics
* medicines used to control fits
* medicines used to prevent blood clots, such as warfarin
* flecainide, a medicine used to treat some heart conditions
* tryptophan.
Your doctor can tell you what to do if you are taking any other medicines.
If you are not sure whether you are taking any of these medicines, check with your doctor or pharmacist.
Your doctor and pharmacist have more information on medicines to be careful with or avoid while taking Prozac.
Do not start taking other medicines
