Our new Dependence Forming Medications e-learning course is now live

Our CPD accredited Dependence Forming Medications (DFM) e-learning course is designed for medicines management teams, GPs, practice nurses, practice pharmacists and non-medical prescribers. It covers the statistics around the use of DFMs, including modules on:

• Introduction to DFMs
• Opioids
• Benzodiazepines and z-drugs
• Gabapentin and pregabalin

It offers practical advice regarding the initiation of these medicines and how long-term use can be reviewed and managed. The learning from the course is supported by four case studies and advice from two GPs with special interest in this area.
