Patients
There is always a lot going on in medicine. All over the world, scientific research is being conducted and insights are constantly changing. Hestia Communicatie strives to make complicated medical texts transparent. Sometimes this can be really necessary. For example, someone who is not a healthcare professional will understand little of the following text in the package leaflet of a widely used drug:
A strict accuracy in the diagnosis and careful medical follow-up are required in the treatment of patients with gastrointestinal disorders or with a history of ulcus ventriculi et duodeni, with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease, and patients with reduced liver function.
What exactly does this mean? It means that patients with stomach problems should not take this medicine. However, it is available without a prescription, in a country where safety is all-important.
