fair, but for non-addicts (assumedly in the majority) it would be good to not require a GP to waste an appointment just to prescribe a medication that is quite safe when taken in moderation. Chemists would be able to see the prescription history. If you haven’t bought any in say, 6 months, you shouldn’t need to go to a GP for a pack of Panadeine.
how about they let them give scripts for Panadeine… you know, that we used to be able to get without a script?
Easier opioid access is probably not a net positive.
