MULTIPLE PACKS
Dispensing multiple packs or multiple repeats of prescription medication
- As pharmacists we must always comply explicitly with your doctors prescribed directions this includes the quantity of the prescription goods to be supplied. Therefore the only time we can supply an increased quantity of a prescribed medicine is if the doctor prescribes that quantity for you.
AUTHORITY PRESCRIPTION
- Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS.
Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health.
Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number).
Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication.
But still pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has the necessary Authority code.
PHARMACIST ONLY MEDICINE

一般信息

CONSUMER MEDICINE INFORMATION
What is in this leaflet
This leaflet answers some common questions about Diaformin.
It does not contain all of the available information. It does not take the place of talking to your doctor, pharmacist or diabetes
educator.
All medicines have benefits and risks. Your doctor has weighed the risks of you taking Diaformin against the benefits they expect
it will have for you.
If you have any concerns about taking this medicine, talk to your doctor, pharmacist or diabetes educator.
Keep this leaflet with your medicine. You may need to read it again.
What Diaformin is used for
Diaformin is used to control blood glucose in patients with diabetes mellitus.
There are two types of diabetes mellitus:
Type 1, also called insulin dependent diabetes
Type 2, also called non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) or maturity onset diabetes.
Diaformin is used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is used when diet and exercise are not enough to control your
blood glucose. Diaformin can be used alone, or in combination with other medicines for treating diabetes.
Diaformin can also be used in patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus where insulin alone is not enough to control blood glucose
levels.
Diaformin is available only with a doctor's prescription.
There is no evidence that Diaformin is addictive.
How Diaformin works
Diaformin belongs to a group of medicines called biguanides. Diaformin lowers blood glucose by helping your body make better
use of the insulin produced by your pancreas.
If your blood glucose is not properly controlled, you may experience hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose) or hyperglycaemia (high
blood glucose).
Hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose) can occur suddenly. Signs may include:
weakness, trembling or shaking
sweating
lightheadedness, dizziness, headache or lack of concentration
irritability, tearfulness or crying
hunger
numbness around the lips and tongue.
If not treated promptly, these may progress to:
loss of co-ordination
slurred speech
confusion
fits or loss of consciousness.
Hyperglycaemia (high blood glucose) usually occurs more slowly than hypoglycaemia. Signs of hyperglycaemia may include:
lethargy or tiredness
headache
thirst
passing large amounts of urine
blurred vision.
Hyperglycaemia can lead to serious problems with your heart, eyes, circulation or kidneys.
Before you take Diaformin
When you must not take it
- Do not take Diaformin if you are allergic to:
medicines containing metformin or any other biguanide
any of the ingredients listed at the end of this leaflet.
- Do not take Diaformin if you have any of the following medical conditions:
Type 1 diabetes mellitus that is well controlled by insulin alone
diabetic acidosis
diabetic coma
kidney disease
severe liver disease
high blood pressure or other heart or blood vessel problems
gangrene
blood clots in the lungs
inflammation of the pancreas.
If you are not sure whether you should start taking Diaformin, ask your doctor.
- Do not take Diaformin if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.
Insulin is more suitable for controlling blood glucose during pregnancy. Your doctor will replace Diaformin with insulin while you are
pregnant.
- Do not take Diaformin if the expiry date (Exp.) printed on the pack has passed.
- Do not take Diaformin if the packaging shows signs of tampering or the tablets do not look quite right.
Before you start to take it
- Tell your doctor if you are allergic to any other medicines, foods, dyes or preservatives.
- Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or wish to breastfeed.
It is not known whether Diaformin passes into breast milk.
Diaformin is usually not recommended while you are breastfeeding. Your doctor will discuss the risks
