After you are prescribed
Understand both your rights and your responsibilities.
Patient rights are not one blanket permission. GreenGuruAI separates law, official guidance, clinical advice, organisational policy and practical evidence so they are not presented as the same thing.
Choose the situation
Start where the uncertainty actually is.
These are genuinely separate situations, so each route can be chosen independently.

Evidence boundary
A prescription is evidence, not a universal answer.
Each guide states what source supports a proposition, what remains fact-specific and when an individual decision needs professional advice. General guidance cannot decide a police investigation, employment dispute, DVLA decision, safeguarding case or court outcome.
