On Tuesday, March 10, at 6 pm, Mayro Cortés, a junior doctor in the Clinical Pharmacology Department at Sant Pau Hospital, will give a talk at the Navas Civic Centre entitled ‘How are adverse drug reactions managed?’.
All medicines can have contraindications and carry a certain risk of causing adverse effects. Do you know what an adverse reaction is and how we manage them, both in hospitals and outside them?
In this talk, we will look at what pharmacovigilance involves, why it is important, and how we can get involved as citizens to identify, as early as possible, serious or previously unknown adverse reactions to medicines that are already on the market.
Address: Ptge. Torent, 1, 08027 Barcelona
Time: 18:00 h – 19:00 h
