In this 5-minute OSCE scenario, the student pharmacist is expected to counsel a patient who has been advised to buy chloramphenicol eye drops for bacterial conjunctivitis. The student must provide clear and accurate advice on administration technique, dosage frequency, potential side effects and storage. The student is also expected to answer any questions and provide safety netting.

Please ensure that this scenario and mark scheme aligns with the most up-to-date guidelines from the UK NICE and the BNF when using it for your OSCE assessment.

You will need a student pharmacist and an actor for this OSCE station.
