520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Nobody working in healthcare can afford to be without the latest<br/>edition of the British National Formulary. Compiled with the<br/>advice of clinical experts and continually updated to reflect the<br/>latest evidence from all credible sources worldwide, this essential<br/>reference provides up-to-date guidance on prescribing,<br/>dispensing, administering, and monitoring medicines. Not only<br/>does the BNF include the widely accepted framework for the drug<br/>management of common diseases, it also includes details of<br/>medicines prescribed in the UK, with special reference to their<br/>uses, cautions, contraindications, side-effects, dosage and relative<br/>costs. This allows treatment to be tailored to the individual needs<br/>of each patient. The BNF is updated in print every six months by<br/>an expert team of pharmacists, with guidance and validation from<br/>a network of leading clinicians, overseen by a Joint Formulary<br/>Committee with representatives from all spheres of clinical<br/>practice. The BNF reflects current best practice as well as legal<br/>and professional guidelines relating to the use of medicines. As a<br/>result it is used widely as a touchstone reference, and cited in<br/>Parliaments and courts as a source of authority.
