Training Local Pharmacies

On Wednesday, BDP hosted the Avon Local Pharmaceutical Committee's specialist Drug and Steroid Training event to support pharmacist and people working in pharmacies across Bristol.

Invited by Avon LPC representatives, it was a great opportunity to inform a large group of local pharmacists about a range of support we offer, including:

Reducing harm for Image & Performance Enhancing Drug users
Providing Naloxone to reverse the effects of opioid overdoses
Introducing Low Dead Space equipment in our Needle Exchange to prevent the spread of Blood-Borne Viruses

Great training from @bdpROADS tonight covering steroids, OST, spice and naloxone

Very interesting and thought-provoking

Pharmacy has a big role to play in harm reduction and reducing BBVs
