PACKAGE INSERTS

Package Inserts orPatient information leaflets (drug leaflet) are leaflets containing specific information about medical conditions, doses, side effects that packed with medicines to give the user information about the product. Patient information leaflets are written by the manufacturing pharmaceutical company. All licensed medicines need to carry such a leaflet.

Package inserts follow a standard format for every medication and include the same types of information. The first thing listed is usually the brand name and generic name of the product. The other sections are as follows:

· Clinical pharmacology - tells how the medicine works in the body, how it is absorbed and eliminated, and what its effects are likely to be at various concentrations. It may also contain results of various clinical trials (studies) and/or explanations of the medication's effect on various populations (e.g. children, women, etc.).

· Indications and usage - uses (indications) for which the drug has been approved (e.g. migraines, seizures, high blood pressure).

· Contraindications - lists situations in which the medication should not be used, for example in patients with other medical conditions such as kidney problems or allergies

· Warnings - covers possible serious side effects that may occur

· Precautions - explains how to use the medication safely including physical impairments and drug interactions
