Proceeding contribution from Annette Brooke (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 December 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Low Dose Naltrexone.


Low Dose Naltrexone

The Minister is being very clear in his exposition. The question that my constituents continually ask is why the NHS is not in the least bit interested in a treatment that is so cheap, costing about 50p a day, and appears to defer care costs into the bargain. A constituent of mine has been with their consultant to see the prescribing committee of the local PCT, but we still do not have this drug on NHS prescription.
