[e-drug] NSAID use

E-drug: NSAID use
---------------------------------------------
Dear friends
As independent drug information centre, Projekt Farmaka, we are
involved in a federal campaign on the rational use of NSAID. As there
is a press conference next week for the start of this campaign, some
figures will be presented on national patterns of NSAID use and
frequency of side-effects, especially in aged people.
We are looking for some comparative data in other European countries.
Is some-one aware of recent publications in this countries on NSAID
use in general or on specific NSAIDs, expressed in number of
packages/year or in DDD, in the general population or in the elderly?
Thanks very much for this help.

Kris Soenen.
