Prescribing for children and young people highlights many complex issues that may not be relevant in other fields of non-medical prescribing. Ongoing changes to legislation pose challenges, requiring paediatric non-medical prescribers to be vigilant in their daily prescribing practice. This article aims to address pertinent challenges and barriers frequently seen in prescribing for children and young people, including not only organisational and human factors, but also legal issues, controversial prescribing, education, the impact of the recent Covid-19 pandemic, and how that has influenced the rise in childhood obesity, in itself an important element.

There are several classes/types of drugs that interact with hormonal contraception, which can increase or reduce the effectiveness of the contraception. Contraceptive hormones can also increase or decrease the safety and effectiveness of certain drugs the individual is taking. Therefore, it is important for any health professional who provides contraception to take a through drug history and check interactions before prescribing. Health professionals must ensure contraceptive consultations are thorough, and that these drug interactions are avoided to ensure optimum prescribing and unintended pregnancy. The Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health has updated its guidance on drug interactions with hormonal contraception, and this article provides a summary of this updated guidance, along with best practice points.
