Swine Flu ADR Portal
admin July 6th, 2009
The MHRA have launched a dedicated adverse drug reaction reporting site for antiviral medication:
With the increased usage of antiviral medicines (tamiflu and relenza) for the treatment of swine flu the MHRA has put place measures to monitor the safety of these important medicines. Suspected side effects to antivirals, and when available H1N1 swine flu vaccines, should be reported via a dedicated internet-based reporting system, the ‘Swine Flu ADR Portal’. The MHRA has developed this Portal to sit alongside the Yellow Card Scheme and act as the main channel through which healthcare professionals and patients/carers can report suspected side effects.
