Medicines - but at what cost, direct penicillin allergy challenge, and prescribing mistakes
In this podcast accompanying the November issue of DTB (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/11) David Phizackerley (DTB Editor) is joined by Syba Sunny (DTB Clinical Editor). David and Syba discuss the editorial that argues that NHS budgets should not be used to ensure that pharmaceutical companies invest in the UK (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/11/162). They talk about a DTB Select article that summarises a systematic review and meta-analysis of trials that assessed patients with a reported penicillin or beta-lactam allergy who underwent direct oral penicillin challenge (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/11/163). They finish by discussing the main article that explores the intersection of medication errors, prescribing errors, harms resulting from the use of medicines and some legal consequences (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/63/11/168).
