Important changes to your prescription

Longtec

The doctors in this practice are continually reviewing their prescribing to provide patients with appropriate, high quality and cost effective medications for their conditions.  We are keen to ensure that all our patients receive the best quality treatment whilst making the best use of NHS resources available to us.

We note from your records that you have been prescribed:

• Longtec 10mg modified-release tablets

In line with local policy your next prescription will be for;

• Oxypro 10mg modified-release tablets

This medication works in the same way as your previous medicine and provides the same dose as before so you should not notice any difference in its effectiveness.  You should continue to take it as normal.  Please finish your current medication before ordering your new medication

Yours sincerely,

Practice Pharmacy Team
