Welcome to the updated palliativedrugs.com website

The site provides essential independent information for health professionals worldwide about drugs used in palliative and hospice care. The content is based on the UK Palliative Care Formulary (PCF, 3rd edition) which was Highly Commended in the British Medical Association 2008 book competition. It includes details about unlicensed (unlabeled) indications and routes, and the administration of multiple drugs by continuous subcutaneous infusion.

The bi-monthly Newsletter has been replaced by the regularly updated 'Latest additions' and 'News' sections, and the Bulletin board expanded to cover non-drug issues. The search facility has also been improved.

For USA members, the Hospice and Palliative Care Formulary USA 2nd edition can be obtained via our bookshop.
