Introduction & module overview
Community pharmacists already advise on acute sinusitis, referring to a GP when red flags are present or where antibiotics might be needed. This module will enhance existing knowledge and help expand pharmacists’ clinical role. Drawing on the NICE Sinusitis (acute): antimicrobial prescribing guideline [NG79], it will support decision-making and identify the small number of occasions where antibiotics might be needed.
