This is an updated guideline from the FSRH on POPs. There is little new, but I have summarised the bits I found interesting.
Women can be given 12m worth at the initial visit.
There is no need to use more than one pill, regardless of the patient’s weight.
"I started using LocumDeck as one of our locums used it. It was easy to see her availability and when bookings are made I get confirmation of the booking and can view them on the calendar too. When invoices are sent, I can see it on the site, and digitally sign the pension form (this is one of the best bits!). I can access it from home or my mobile which is useful as when I am not in surgery is when I usually need a locum."
