Pharmaceutical prescribing for children. Part 6. Dental management and prescribing for the immunocompromised child. [Journal Article, Review]
Prim Dent Care 2006 Oct; 13(4):135-9.


This paper is the sixth in a series on the prescribing of medicines for children by dentists working in primary care. It deals with the dental management and prescribing of medicines for the immunocompromised child. It differs from previous papers in the series in that, apart from the prescription of medicaments such as fluoride supplements and chlorhexidine mouthwashes, most medication for this group of children is prescribed by specialists working in secondary care rather than by primary dental care practitioners.
