CA 2352629

Improved methods for delivering to a patient in need of the drug, while avoiding the occurrence of an adverse side effect known or suspected of being caused by the drug are disclosed. The methods are of the type in which prescriptions for the drug are filled only after a computer readable storage medium has been consulted to assure that the prescriber, pharmacy and patient have been properly registered in the medium before the patient is approved to receive the drug. Embodiments are provided wherein the patients are assigned to risk groups based upon the risk that taking the drug will lead to the side effect, and certain additional information, such as periodic surveys and diagnostic tests probative of the ongoing risk of the side effect developing are obtained before prescriptions for the drug are approved.

L'invention concerne des méthodes d'administration d'un médicament à un patient, permettant à la fois d'éviter l'occurrence d'un effet secondaire indésirable connu ou soupçonné d'être causé par le médicament. Ces méthodes sont du type de celles dans lesquelles les prescriptions pour le médicament ne sont acceptées que lorsqu'un support de stockage informatique lisible a été consulté pour s'assurer que le prescripteur, la pharmacie et le patient ont été adéquatement enregistrés dans le support avant d'accepter que le patient reçoive le médicament. Dans des modes de réalisation de l'invention, les patients sont assignés à des groupes à risque basés sur le risque que la prise du médicament engendre l'effet secondaire, et certaines informations supplémentaires, telles que des études périodiques et des essais de diagnostic prouvant le risque permanent d'évolution de l'effet secondaire, sont obtenues avant que les prescriptions pour le médicament ne soient approuvées.
