Week 7 Foundation Pharmacist Exam Drop

Week 7 of The Weekly Drop is here — and this is the one that examiners love. High-risk medicines and drug toxicity scenarios make up a disproportionately large share of GPhC exam questions because these are the situations where pharmacists save lives. This week's questions are designed to test exactly the kind of thinking that turns a pre-reg into a safe, registered pharmacist.
 
This week's drop also includes a question on the brand new NICE NG28 February 2026 update for type 2 diabetes — modified-release metformin plus an SGLT2 inhibitor as first-line for all adults with T2DM. This is the freshest exam-relevant guidance you'll see anywhere, and you need to know it for 16 June.
Expect scenarios on methotrexate dosing errors (a fatal medication error), the NICE NG28 2026 update, warfarin over-anticoagulation per NICE CKS, digoxin toxicity, opioid conversion in renal impairment, serotonin syndrome, QT prolongation interactions, paracetamol overdose, SSRI-induced hyponatraemia, fentanyl patch counselling, carbimazole and agranulocytosis, allergic conjunctivitis, and sore throat under the Pharmacy First Service. The EMQ tests drug-induced adverse effects across mixed scenarios.
