| NATIONAL PRESCRIBING SERVICE ONLINE CONSUMER MEDICINE INFORMATION (CMI) DATABASE
Consumer Medicine Information (CMI) is designed to inform consumers about prescription and pharmacist-only medicines. CMI leaflets are produced by the pharmaceutical company that makes the particular medicine. They may be included in the medicine package, but can always be requested from the pharmacist, doctor, this online serch facility, or the Medicines Line.
CMI's contain important facts to know before, during and after taking your medicine. They include a description of the medicine, what it is normally used for, how it should be taken, and possible side effects or precautions.
