In this month’s podcast, James Cave (DTB Editor-in-Chief) and David Phizackerley (DTB Deputy Editor) discuss a proposal from NHS England to introduce a sore throat test-and-treat service in community pharmacies. They review the evidence on the management of sore throat and examine the assumptions that underpin the proposed service.

The editors also discuss pitolisant, a new drug for narcolepsy, and review the evidence for LAMA/LABA inhaler combinations for people with COPD.
