Access to BNF and BNF/C from 7 November 2014

From 7 November 2014, access to the BNF and BNFC will soon no longer be available via http://www.bnf.org/. Please update any local bookmarks you have to
http://www.evidence.nhs.uk/formulary/bnfc/current
and
http://www.evidence.nhs.uk/formulary/bnf/current
For those students with an NHS Athens account (Year 1's, you should have received or will shortly receive an email with a link to activate your account) you can also download an app for both BNF/C for use on your mobile device. See https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/nice-bnf/id523093958?mt=8 for example.

If you receive a message saying “Account not active”, follow these instructions:
 
Before trying to download the BNF app(s) first activate your account and then access a different resource. Once you have done this you will be able to download the apps.
 
If the problem continues, contact your local NHS Library in the first instance. Contact details for your local NHS library can be found at http://libguides.hull.ac.uk/medicine/eResourceAccessInfo. The staff will determine whether this issue should be escalated to NICE.
