The Antibiotic table below has been created to direct NELFT health professionals to the correct antibiotic formulary depending on where staff are located. The column lists each of NELFT’s boroughs. The first row details staff location within the borough, the second row details which formularies to use and the third row shows the web-links which when clicked on will open the corresponding formulary.

To view the table, please navigate from left-to-right. For sexual health services please refer to the information underneath the table
