Rigevidon

We're waiting for Laura Hanton to read recent responses and update the status.

Dear Department of Health and Social Care,

I'd like to request the following information:

1. Is the NHS prescribing rigevidon more commonly than other contraceptive pills?
2. What factors are taken into account when prescribing contraceptive pills i.e. price, supply, safety, efficacy?
3. Are doctors and nurses encouraged to prescribe certain pills by on-screen suggestions?

Yours faithfully,

Laura Hanton

Dear Department of Health and Social Care,

Please let me have copies of your documents that describe the relative merits and demerits of rigevidon.

Yours faithfully,

Laura Hanton
