An independent, non-regulatory drug surveillance research unit has been established at the University of Southampton. Its first task will be to set up a prescription-event monitoring scheme in general practice to enable the pattern of adverse events, as distinct from suspected adverse reactions associated with new drugs to be compared with that of older medicines. Prescriptions for selected drugs will identify patients and a simple questionnaire, designed to be completed in under five minutes, will be used to obtain the required information. Medical opinions about causation need not be given, and the scheme will not interfere with normal prescribing practice.
南安普敦大学设立了一个独立的、非监管性的药物监测研究单位。其首要任务将是在全科医疗中建立一个处方事件监测计划,以便将新药相关不良事件的模式(有别于疑似不良反应)与老药的模式进行比较。选定药物的处方将识别患者,一份设计为在五分钟内完成的简单问卷将用于获取所需信息。无需给出关于因果关系的医学意见,该计划也不会干扰正常的处方行为。
