Palliative Care Formulary

What is the Lancashire and South Cumbria palliative care formulary?

The LSC Palliative Care Formulary is taken from the the Lancashire and South Cumbria Palliative Care Clinical Practice Summary. Entries can be filtered or searched by using the search bar. 

The summary has been developed by the North West Coast Clinical Network supported by LSCMMG. Information relating to the North West Coast Clinical Network can be found here.

How can I access the Lancashire and South Cumbria Palliative Care Clinical Practice Summary?

The Lancashire and South Cumbria Palliative Care Clinical Practice Summary can be accessed by clinical area below. Each formulary entry links to the full guideline and the relevant section of the guideline for quick reference.

Full guideline

  1. Pain
  2. Complex pain
  3. Nausea and vomiting
  4. Breathlessness
  5. Constipation

Please note that the Clinical Practice Summary cannot replace advice from experienced clinicians.
