E-DRUG: Independent journal Prescrire submits 57 proposals to France's national conference
on medicines policy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The independent journal Prescrire has accepted an invitation from the French government to participate in a national conference on medicines policy, organised in the wake of the Mediator° scandal. By revealing numerous malfunctions in the medicines chain, the scandal over the weight-loss drug has sparked a crisis of confidence between patients and the healthcare professions, one that requires everyone's attention and energy.

Prescrire's 57 proposals are available at http://english.prescrire.org/en/81/168/46838/0/NewsDetails.aspx
