The development of medication guides involves several steps:
1. Research and Evidence Gathering: Epidemiologists and healthcare professionals gather data from clinical trials, observational studies, and post-marketing surveillance to understand the drug’s profile. 2. Risk Assessment: Identifying and assessing potential risks associated with the drug is crucial. This includes side effects, contraindications, and interactions. 3. Content Creation: The information is then compiled into a user-friendly format, ensuring that it is accessible and understandable to the general population.
