| Abstract | Advice outlining the risks associated with dosulepin use resulted in its inclusion as a National Prescribing Indicator (NPI) in Wales in April 2011. Change in dosulepin prescribing in primary care was measured to examine the impact of the NPI. The rate of dosulepin usage in Wales reduced significantly following introduction of the NPI. Inclusion of dosulepin prescribing as an NPI led to a greater reduction in its use compared to the impact of previous advice. |
