Dear e-drug readers,

We are a group of medical students from university of Peradeniya, Sri
Lanka.Wewould be thankful to you if you could give us the following
information to be used in a work shop conducted for medical students.

1.What are the international professional bodies/health authorities
that accept generic prescription as the most rational method of
prescription in most instances.Please give us references from
literature if possible so that we can quote them in future references.

2.Can you please tell us a few definitions given by such health
authorities eg:WHO for RATIONAL USE OF DRUGS.Please give the
references if possible.

Thank you.
