Home - electronic medicines compendium (emc)
The most up to date, comprehensive, regulated information about medicines. Easy to use, trusted and recommended by healthcare professionals
www.medicines.org.uk
If you look at UK health pages, many NHS & other “official” pages, there are vast numbers of references to the Electronic Medicines Compendium (eMC).
www.medicines.org.uk
The impression is that the eMC has Patient Information Leaflets (PILs) for all UK medicines. And that is where we should look.

The recent enormous quantities of rain have not been fun.
But we do get something really nice - phenomenal numbers and intensities of rainbows. Always seem best when I am driving or otherwise unable to take a photo. This is just a quick snap.

So tell me again how Nigel Farage, who just took the largest ever political donation, from a Tory mega-donor, and another donation from the Viscountess wife of the non-dom owner of the Daily Mail, is planning to "take on the establishment"

Losing hearing has its amusements
For years now, my hearing has not been fantastic - mainly a missing bit, a notch, and generally less good simply due to age.
The result is often being unable to hear any difference between “f” and “s” - along with other muddiness.

Complaining about a billionaire party treasurer isn't the whole story.
Stop foreign/anonymous donations completely. Cap UK donations especially from non-individual donors.
