This guidance is being kept under review, and updates will be made as necessary. Serious Shortage Protocols are in place for Creon 10,000 and 25,000 capsules to limit prescriptions to one months’ supply, to allow demand management.</p><p>We understand how frustrating and distressing medicine supply issues can be. While we can’t always prevent supply issues from occurring, the Department has a range of well-established processes and tools to manage them when they arise, and to help mitigate risks to patients.</p> answering member constituency Bristol South answering member printed Karin Smyth question first answered 26/07/2024 08:59:36 answering member 4444 label Biography information for Karin Smyth
