FOI 0380 2019/20 Annual Paracetamol Spend After Surgery

Freedom of Information Request: 0380 2019/20

Please could you tell me under the “Freedom of Information Act”, how much we spend annually on Paracetamol ‘to take home’ after surgery in the Ambulatory Care Theatres QEHB, and East Block Day Case Theatres QEH.

Based on the first 6 months of 2019/20 expenditure in these areas it is forecasted to be £2,742 per year. This figure includes ward stocks administered in these areas as these are also used for some patients to take home.
