4 November 2026 · 18:00
Centre Cívic Guinardó, el Guinardó, Horta-Guinardó
Led by Mayro Cortés, resident doctor in the Servei de Farmacologia Clínica at l'Hospital de Sant Pau. All medicines can have contraindications and carry some risk of adverse effects. Do you know what an adverse reaction is and how it is monitored, both inside and outside hospitals? In this talk we will look at what pharmacovigilance involves, why it is important and how we can participate as citizens to identify serious or previously unknown adverse reactions to medicines already on the market as early as possible.
