Report an Adverse Event

Medicines can cause side effects. The majority of these are identified at the clinical investigation stages and can be found in the ‘Summary of product characteristics’, the package leaflet of a medicine. Despite the extensive clinical research and multiple reviewing stages, not all side effects are always discovered. Unknown side effects can occur when a medicine is used more often, over a longer period of time and by a large patient population. In the healthcare sector, we call them ‘adverse events’.

Reporting any adverse events - even if they may not be related to the use of a medicine – is of vital importance for all patients’ safety. These reports help the manufacturer of a medicine to understand the cause of such effects and respond efficiently where necessary.
