FiledAugust 12th, 2021This shared care agreement outlines suggested ways in which the responsibilities for managing the prescribing of Fluoxetine for the indications above can be shared between the specialist and general practitioner (GP). GPs are invited to participate. If the GP is not confident to undertake these roles, then he or she is under no obligation to do so. In such an event, the total clinical responsibility for the patient for the diagnosed condition remains with the specialist.
