Abstract
In recent years there has been a renewed interest in the use of local hospital 'formularies'. The development and preparation at The London Hospital (Whitechapel) of a guide of prescribing which embraces and extends the concept of a formulary is described. A method of involving staff in the preparation of text was developed to ensure the rapid production of a reasonably comprehensive guide which would command respect and a high degree of compliance. The use of word-processing techniques and graphic design expertise are described. The guide has been carefully introduced together with plans for monitoring compliance and its influence on drug expenditure. These are discussed in the light of one year's experience with the guide.
