Abstract

An unlicensed medicine is a medication that has not been approved for use by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency. In England, unlicensed medicines account for just under 1% of all community prescriptions, and thus, prescribers will encounter them relatively regularly during their working life. It is important to know the evidence-based guidelines about unlicensed medicines before prescribing them.
