Drug Analysis Prints provide complete listings of the suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reported to the MHRA through the Yellow Card Scheme by healthcare professionals and patients in the United Kingdom.
- Each Drug Analysis Print lists all reactions reported for a particular medicinal active substance from health professionals and patients.
- Medicines are listed by the name of the active ingredient and not by the brand name. (The name of the active substance in your medicine can be found in the patient information leaflet supplied with your medicine.)
Drug Analysis Prints provided on this website will be continuously updated. Please be aware that if you have reported a suspected Adverse Drug Reaction it will not appear on this website immediately. This is because a time lag has been built into the publication of this information to enable the MHRA to investigate any safety concerns that arise from Yellow Card Scheme data, and take necessary action.
