By Patient Group Direction (PGD). A medicine may be administered under a PGD, for example TXA. A PGD will list a specific medicine, dose/s, indications and contraindications. A paramedic must follow a PGD as there is no legal exemption for administering a medicine outside of this PGD. In order for a PGD to be legal it must be signed by a Doctor, Pharmacist and the paramedic using it.
