Dear Forum Users, I am trying to get a definite answer to the questions below:
1. Does any UK PCT allow NHS prescriptions for Ebixa (Memantine), on the NHS?
2. If YES which ones do allow the drug to be prescribed on the NHS?
3. Are there any special conditions that attach to the prescribing of the drug?
4. In particular are there any PCTs in London that allow NHS prescriptions for the drug?
5. Where can I get the answers to these questions - has anyone already been down this road?
My sibling has been prescribed the drug and my sibling is very distressed and unhappy that it has to be payed for. It is expensive. My sibling lives in SW London UK.
all info greatly appreciated, Johnscondor, 21/10/2009
