The ending of the essential small pharmacy local pharmaceutical services scheme on 31 March 2015 does not require such pharmacies to close. That is a decision for the individual contractor concerned. They may decide to return to the main National Health Service pharmaceutical list and come under the terms of the national community pharmacy contractual framework. Alternatively, they can decide to submit a proposal to NHS England to provide local pharmaceutical services. NHS England is working with individual providers of essential small pharmacies to ensure people in affected communities can continue to access appropriate NHS pharmaceutical services. However, if an essential small pharmacy \u2013 or any other type of pharmacy - did decide to close, it would no longer be able to provide NHS pharmaceutical services.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Patients can at any time request in writing that a doctor provides them with NHS pharmaceutical services. Applications should be made via the doctor to the appropriate NHS England office. To be eligible to receive dispensing services from a doctor, a patient must meet certain criteria, such as having serious difficulty obtaining services from a pharmacy or the patient lives in a designated rural area, more than 1.6 kilometres from the nearest pharmacy. These criteria are set out in Regulation 48 of the National Health Services (Pharmaceutical Services and Local Pharmaceutical Services) Regulations 2013 \u2013 SI 2013/349. A patient must also be on the doctor\u2019s patient list, or the patient list of the practice at which the doctor provides or performs primary medical services, and the practice must be authorised by NHS England to provide NHS dispensing services.<\/p>

A total of 7947 suspected adverse reaction reports with human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccines have been reported to the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) via the Yellow Card Scheme up to 3 December 2014. It is important to note that a Yellow Card report is not proof of a side effect occurring, but a suspicion by the reporter that the vaccine may have been the cause. The frequency of known side effects is listed in the product information (the Summary of Product Characteristics for health professionals and the Patient Information Leaflet) which are provided with the vaccines.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The following table provides a breakdown of these reports by brand and seriousness.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Vaccine Brand<\/p><\/td> | Total number of reports<\/p><\/td> | Number of serious reports (% of total)<\/p><\/td><\/tr> |
Cervarix<\/p><\/td> | 6,260<\/p><\/td> | 1,762 (28%)<\/p><\/td><\/tr> |
Gardasil<\/p><\/td> | 1,200<\/p><\/td> | 459 (38%)<\/p><\/td><\/tr> |
HPV Brand unspecified<\/p><\/td> | 488<\/p><\/td> | 308 (63%)<\/p><\/td><\/tr> |

The MHRA continually reviews safety of the vaccine and, following administration of over 7 million doses in the UK alone, no serious new risks have been identified. The benefits in protecting against HPV-related disease far outweigh any possible side effects of the vaccine.<\/p> <\/p>"}
