Now here's the thing, as we all know, the NHS is struggling with finite resources to meet an infinite demand for it services. Therefore any additional cost burden will inevitably take resources away from other areas.
How much does one of these pills cost?
£3 a pop!
Who should be prescribed them?
People who drink 2 or more glasses of wine a day (or the equivalent).
Yes, you did read that correctly, 2 or more glasses of wine a day!
For why?
NICE are of the view that if you drink 2 glasses of wine a day then you are an alcoholic!
FFS!
These cretins need to get a life, and stop interfering in the lives of others.
Those who are alcohol dependent, and who come forward for help, are the ones that the scarce resources of the NHS should be focussed on; not the members of the public who drink a couple of glasses of wine, who are not dependent.
You may also be wondering about the side effects of these pills:
- nausea
- vomiting
- anxiety
- lack of sleep
- constipation etc etc
Hang on, doesn't alcohol do that too if you over indulge?
NICE really needs to get its head out of its backside!

Just what the struggling pubs need,pills to cut your intake AND proposed benefit
ReplyDeletepayments in the form of shopping coupons to stop the unemployed keeping the
lower end of the pub trade in business. The London based freak cliques must be
dreaming up "worthy" reasons to kill of the pub trade alltogether.
You cannot prescribe pills for people that don’t want them.
ReplyDeleteI can see them using this as a "but you aren't on our alcohol pills therefore any ailment you have is your own addicted fault".
ReplyDeleteAnd does this mean that the MP's should be handed these pills on entry to the bar at the house of Commons?
