Can a physiotherapist prescribe medications to the patients?
Hii Richardson,
Hope you are doing good.
You should be knowing that a physiotherapist helps us through their therapies for joint pain, muscle pain, and other therapy related ailments. They can only prescribe medication when working with the written authority of a doctor. A Department of Health consultation exercise envisages them being able to prescribe medication for pain relief and conditions such as asthma and no other common ailments.
I hope this was helpful for you.
Best wishes.
Take care.
