Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if her Department will issue guidance or instructions relating to the reduction or removal of sugar from prescription medicines; and if she will make an assessment of the potential impact of such changes on patients who are unable to tolerate artificial sweeteners.

I refer the Hon Member to the answer he was provided on 8 June in response to Questions 4511 and 4512. If there are any new developments to report in this area, I will ensure that he is updated.
