As part of our efforts to reduce waste and reduce impact to the environment, we are no longer automatically printing drug information sheets when dispensing medication. Instead, a QR code will be printed on the drug label which you can use to get to the information sheet online when scanned from suitable mobile devices. The main URL for all drug sheets will also be shown on the label, which can be used from any device. For those of you that still require a printed drug sheet, please ask when picking up your medication and we will be happy to print one out for you.
