Practice refused to continue hospital-prescribed medication

I have significant concerns about this practice's approach to medication management. When a hospital specialist initiates a medication, I believe it should be their responsibility to determine whether it remains necessary. I was started on an iron supplement by a consultant haematologist, and my blood condition improved as a result. I am disappointed that this practice has declined to continue this prescription, as I worry this may reverse my progress. I have attempted to contact the consultant's office to discuss this matter further. Additionally, I experienced a concerning situation regarding a prescription strength adjustment for an antacid medication. I was present when the original prescription was issued at a higher strength, and I have questions about how and why the dosage was subsequently reduced without clear communication. Following this adjustment, my daughter experienced illness and vomiting, which I attribute to the change in medication strength. When I expressed my frustration about these issues, I felt my concerns were not taken seriously, and I received a warning letter regarding my behaviour. I feel this practice has not demonstrated the level of care and attention I would expect.
