Do you prescribe anti-snoring devices (MRDs)?

Our network of sleep-trained pharmacists, as per NICE guidelines, refer snorers (non-sleepy and without relevant comorbities to you.)

They use industry recognised pre-treatment screening questions¹ (and more) to connect snorers with the most appropriate healthcare professional i.e.:

• Simple snorers to sleep-trained dentists for screening prior to a prescription, custom-made anti-snoring device
• Those requiring further investigation to their GP

The British Society of Pharmacy Sleep Services ↗ (BSPSS) surveyed community pharmacists and their appetite for provision of sleep services (amongst other things).

Their abstract was presented at the November 2021 British Sleep Society meeting and published in the BMJ Open Respiratory Research journal. ↗
