AW: Deu/CH>Eng: URGENT: Various abbr. from tech. info. + Arzneimittelkompendium

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

" Arzneimittelkompendium " is certainly not a pharmacopoeia. A pharmacopeia

describes drugs from the pharmaceutical/analytical point of view, where the

" Arzneimittelkompendium " describes the medical/therapeutical point of view.

Therefore, I would use the word " compendium " ( " drug compendium " or

" compendium of medicinal products " depending on the target market, GB, US?).

I = Indication, ok.

KI seems to be " Kontraindikation " .

Your ideas for VM and IA seem to be correct.

Best regards

Charlotte

Arzneimittelkompendium

1. I assume that Arzneimittelkompendium = Swiss Pharmacopeia?

Abbreviations as section headings in a tech. info. leaflet about this

medicinal product:

2. If D = Dosage and UAW = adverse effects - or should I say side-effects?

(the usual list: Very common ... very rare),

I = Indication? (I: In Kombination mit xxx Agonisten u. yyy bei Patienten

mit fortgeschrittenem zzz).

What is Kl? (Kl: Überempfindlichkeit auf Wirkstoff).

VM = Vorsichtsmassnahmen/Precautions? (VM: Vorsicht b. moderater od.

schwerer Einschränkung der Leberfunktion).

IA = interactions? (IA: Nahrungsmittel, Medikamente, die durch xxx

metabolisiert werden).

Many thanks,

Hello Charlotte,

Thanks for this. I wonder whether this is a difference between the German

and British approaches. My BNF (British National Formulary), which I

regard as a pharmacopoeia, covers the medical/therapeutical aspects.

Maybe I am confused. What exactly do you mean by pharmaceutical/analytical

point of view?

Regards,
