Abstract

Many people around the world take prescription medications: some for short durations (e.g., antibiotics) others continuously on a daily or multiple times daily basis. Taking any prescription medication inherently has both benefits
(i.e., alleviating symptoms) and risks (e.g., side effects, contraindications, interactions, overdoses) for consumers. This study compared the content and design of online Consumer Medication Information (CMI) from three sources: one Canadian and one American pharmacy, as well as the Danish national resource minmedicin.dk. The investigators identified strengths and weaknesses of each of the three online CMI sources revealing opportunities for improvement.
