We have been getting an increasing number of queries relating to medicine shortages. You may find the following resources useful:
- Extemp.ie is a national database of extemporaneous preparations compiled using contributions from 26 hospitals in the Republic of Ireland, which details most of the currently prepared extemporaneous preparations used in these hospitals;
- The Pharmacist Antimicrobial Stewardship Network (PAMS-net) is a forum where valuable professional experiences and resources related to antimicrobial stewardship are shared;
- The Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland Guidance for Pharmacists on Extemporaneous Dispensing provides guidance designed to assure the safe and appropriate preparation and supply of extemporaneously prepared medicinal products to patients, where the supply of such products is necessary.
