    • The scheme is no longer described as a trial scheme in 2026.
    • The requirement that the medication review must be carried out by a certified pharmacist is largely unchanged; it now says »i givet fald« and simply »farmaceut« instead of »apoteksfarmaceut«.
  • When: The executive order entered into force on 15 September 2026.
