| Abstract | Background: Self-prescribing and prescribing to personal contacts is explicitly discouraged by General Medical Council guidelines. Aims: This study examines how widespread the practice of self-prescribing and prescribing to personal contacts is. Methods: A 16-item questionnaire was distributed via an online forum comprising 4445 young medical doctors (representing 20% of all Irish registered doctors), which asked respondents about previous prescribing to themselves, their families, friends and colleagues, including the class of medication prescribed. Demographic details were collected including medical grade and specialty. Results: A total of 729 responses were obtained, the majority of which were from young non-consultant hospital doctors from a range of specialties. Two-thirds of respondents had self-prescribed, over 70% had prescribed to family, and nearly 60% had prescribed to a friend or colleague. Older doctors were more likely to self-prescribe ( Conclusion: Prescribing outside the traditional doctor-patient relationship is widespread despite clear professional guidance advising against it. |
