I recently picked up a prescription for a family member and noticed instead of "Co-codamol 30/500" it was for a specific brand and read "Zapain (by advanz pharma)". I found this odd so spoke to the pharmacist about it. Because that specific brand was listed she wouldn't be able to issue anything but that brand. Any idea why the prescribing doctor would issue a script like this rather than the generic medication? According to the patient thats just the was its been since moving to a different GP.
