En Europe occidentale et en Amérique du Nord, les autorités de la santé publique disposent de différentes méthodes de surveillance post-commercialisation. En vertu d'un système particulier, ce sont les patients eux-mêmes qui documentent les effets indésirables et les signalent aux autorités. Jusqu'à date, cependant, la plupart des études sur les EIM [effets indésirables des médicaments] ne semblent pas avoir comporté un volet en vertu duquel les patients s'adressaient directement aux agences de réglementation. 2, record 1, French, - surveillance%20post%2Dcommercialisation
