To help keep you well, we sometimes need to monitor certain health conditions or medications more frequently than once a year. This may involve checking things like blood tests, blood pressure, or weight to ensure your treatment remains safe, effective, and appropriate for you.
Some medications and long-term conditions require closer monitoring. For example, medicines used to treat autoimmune conditions (such as methotrexate or other DMARDs), or conditions like chronic kidney disease, may need blood tests more often to keep you safe. If we identify that you need more frequent checks, we’ll invite you for the relevant tests. These appointments help us make sure your treatment continues to work well for you.
Thank you for helping us keep you safe.
