E-DRUG: Drug Information to the Public

Dear Mark and Gilbert,

I am working for the Dutch Institute for effective use of medication. Since
1992 I implement the pharmacotherapy discussion groups in the dutch primary
health care. Now we are starting transmural pharmacotherpy projects in order
to improve prescription practices also at the interphase between primary and
secondary health care. We also have a department in our organization on
patient information/education. The consultant working for this team are
visiting consumer groups (e.g.eldery, women) to tell them about effective
use of medication and e.g. the benefits of generic use.

Two years ago I met Gilbert at HAI-meeting in Paris, since then I lost
contact. Let me know what you are doing at the King's fund?

Best regards,
