Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy is critical for some people with unresectable pancreatic cancer. Was this service disrupted during COVID? No. A good news story. BUT under-use persists? Another great paper only shipped thru our OpenSAFELY platform.

We value the role of #pharmacists ; they know when patients repeatedly request over-the-counter meds to relieve pancreatic cancer-related symptoms. We firmly believe they should have the ability to make direct referrals to both hospitals and GPs if PC is suspected. #Pharmacy24Day

Please help us to bring this important paper 'exploring community pharmacists’ barriers to cancer-related conversations with patients' to Sajid Javid's attention to help support #pharmacists make #cancer referrals as part of NHS England's 10 year plan 🙏
