Medicine and Surgery SCRIPT module ‘Paediatric Prescribing’ split into two modules

19th June 2024

We have recently split the ‘Paediatric Prescribing’ module in our Medicine and Surgery portfolio into two modules, these are titled ‘Paediatric Practical Prescribing’ and ‘Paediatric Pharmacokinetics’.

Following the introduction of the feedback form at the end of each of our modules, we received quite a bit of feedback relating to the length of the original paediatric module. The two new modules now cover exactly the same content as the original module, but in a more digestible and focused format. The two modules are available in our Medicine and Surgery portfolio. The ‘Paediatric Pharmacokinetics’ module can be found in the Principles of Prescribing category and the ‘Paediatric Practical Prescribing’ module in our Prescribing in Special Circumstances category.
