The purpose of SEL IMOC

The Committee’s work includes:

  • assessing new medicines for prescribing within south east London
  • developing guidance for medicines use
  • contributing to our locally agreed formulary

The Committee also has several clinical “sub-groups” which report to it and provide expert guidance and recommendations on specific areas, such as diabetes or cardiovascular disease. Information on medicines approved for use locally can be found in the SEL Joint Medicines Formulary (JMF) website. The SEL JMF is managed by colleagues from Guy’s and St. Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust.
