NHS Advice & Guidance clinical cases with worked answers

Lifestyle for Healthy Living — Clinical Cases

A collection of 27 NHS Advice & Guidance clinical cases covering medication reviews, drug interactions, dose adjustments, oncology, palliative care, and specialist therapy. Each case has a full worked answer based on current BNF and NICE guidance.


What Are These Cases?

These clinical cases are based on real-world NHS Advice & Guidance scenarios that pharmacists and other healthcare professionals encounter in practice. They test the ability to identify drug-related problems and make safe, evidence-based recommendations.

What Topics Are Covered?

Cases cover a wide range of settings including community pharmacy, GP practice, hospital wards, care homes, oncology clinics, and specialist services. Topics include medication reviews, drug interactions, renal and hepatic dose adjustments, palliative care, biologics, and chemotherapy dose calculations.

How to Use These Cases

Each case presents a patient scenario with history, medications, and observations. Work through the case systematically using BNF and NICE guidance before reviewing the worked answer. This builds the clinical reasoning skills needed for OSPAP assessments and real-world practice.
