Full decision

Summary

Mr C complained about a change that prison healthcare staff made to his medication dosage. He also complained that he had not been included in the investigation into his complaint.

We took independent advice from a medical adviser. Their view, which we accepted, was that Mr C's medication had been appropriately prescribed and so we did not uphold this complaint.

We also found that Mr C had been consulted during the investigation, and so we did not uphold this complaint either.
