Researchers who've studied asp caterpillars say the hair-like bristles that cause the intense pain evolved from the transfer of genes from bacteria more than 400 million years ago.

You may have heard that the Federal Government is proposing to introduce 60-day dispensing.
What great timing...
When stock is already desperately short, let's just double how many we dispense at a time.......

Australia is currently experiencing an unprecedented number of medicines shortages. There are almost 400 medicines (as of 23/04/2023) either unavailable now or expected shortly.
Medicines that are currently available in Australia will face increased demand as patients start expecting double supplies. This was an issue that was seen in the early days of COVID in 2020. Back then we had to put Panadol behind the counter and could only sell one bottle at a time.

The recommendation from the Therapeutic Goods Administration then was to limit supply to one month at a time on essential medicines.

Fast forward to 2023 and at the same time as pack sizes of paracetamol are being reduced (for public safety) the Government is proposing to double the supplied quantities of many drugs such as antidepressants. Where's the public safety in that???

This move is BAD policy and we need to speak out against it.
It’s bad for the supply chain.
And it’s bad for public safety.
