🦸 Here are 4 ways that patients and their carers can be #MedSafetyHeroes: ✔ Talk to HCPs about potential side effects ✔ Ask how to report side effects ✔ Read the patient information leaflet and follow dosage instructions ✔ Report suspected side effects #MedSafetyWeek

The theme of this year's #MedSafetyWeek is "We all have the power to make medicines safer". Unfortunately only about 5-10% of ADRs are reported so if you suspect one you can report here yellowcard.mhra.gov.uk/ Be a Yellow Card superhero!
