In this scenario, the pharmacy student’s role is to engage in a consultation with a patient who has recently been prescribed Amlodipine for hypertension but is hesitant about taking medications long-term. The student's objectives are to take a brief medication and social history, provide comprehensive lifestyle advice, and address the patient's concerns and questions regarding their medication.

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

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