What are Smoking Cessation PGDs?
A Smoking Cessation PGD is a legal framework that allows registered pharmacists to supply and manage tobacco dependence medications, such as Varenicline or Bupropion, without a doctor's prescription. As public health initiatives move toward "Making Every Contact Count," having a robust clinical PGD in place is essential for pharmacies looking to provide a professional, private alternative to traditional NHS stop-smoking services.
Deltera’s platform enhances the standard PGD by integrating it into a high-performance digital workflow. This ensures that every step—from initial patient screening and BMI verification to the management of potential contraindications—is logged with timestamped precision. By using our Smoking Cessation PGD library, your pharmacy can offer a high-governance service that mirrors the rigor of primary care, providing patients with immediate access to life-changing treatments while ensuring your business remains clinically compliant and "inspection-ready."
