Dispensing of Medication. I agree that I will not use my own drink (e.g. cans of Coke etc.) immediately after swallowing my medication but will take the drink of water provided. • I understand that I will need to return the empty bottle/cup back to the pharmacist for their disposal. • I realise that the pharmacist is advised to refuse to supply me with my medication if he/she suspects that I am intoxicated and will refer me back to the clinic.

Replacement medication will not be given under any circumstances including ‘lost’, ‘spilled’ or ‘stolen’ doses. • I accept that if I do not attend for my medication, the pharmacist may notify my key worker of my non-attendance, who will inform my prescriber. • I understand that if I miss consecutive supervised doses, the pharmacist is instructed to refuse any further supplies and refer me back to my key worker. • I understand that if I miss a days supply, I will not be able to receive it at a later date. • I agree to attend for my medication alone.
