[e-drug] Study of pictograms representing undesirable effects of medicines

E-DRUG: Study of pictograms representing undesirable effects of medicines
-----------------------------------------------------------

Dear e-drug community

Icons are a useful communication tool to provide information to patients with limited understanding of the language. To solve this problem, the International Pharmaceutical Federation, in collaboration with the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario and Algonquin College in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, has developed a series of icons representing the main adverse reactions to drugs. We invite you to respond to this questionnaire. W will identify the pictograms best understood by a majority of people around the world. It only takes 10 to 15 minutes. This study is important to improve the safe use of medicines worldwide. To facilitate its implementation, this study was written in several languages

We invite you to complete the questionnaire by clicking on a link below:
