[CARPA] Bicillin

[EriK Van Den Berg]

Robbo - did they give any info on the formulation/presentation - ie will
it be a pre-filled syringe like the old Bicillin LA?
Its just that I have been asked for input in the review of the local
Primary care manual - which includes administration info of various
medications including IM penicillins.
 
Thanks
 
Erik

st1\:*{behavior:url(#default#ieooui) }I enquired with Aspen Pharmacare
a couple of days ago about how the approval process for Bicillin was
going. "we have had approval for the new Bicillin facility for New
Zealand and we expect Australia to be soon, if all okay we hope to have
stocks by late in the year."   Robbo Andrew RobertsPharmacist -
