Our information leaflets and datasheets

Electronic medicines compendium

The electronic medicines compendium, provided by the pharmaceutical industry, contains the latest patient information leaflets found in medicine packs and summaries of product characteristics, produced by the pharmaceutical companies.

Medication information leaflets (European Medicines Agency)

The European Medicines Agency provides medication information leaflets in all official European Union languages, for medicines given a product licence since the EMA was set up - this limits the number of information leaflets available, as many products were licensed before the EMA came into existence. Some medication will be listed under brand names and some under generic, pharmaceutical names.
