CONSUMER MEDICINE INFORMATION (CMI)

The CMI is a leaflet for patients or carers containing information on the safe and effective use of a medicine. It does not contain all the information known about the medicine.

The CMI helps the patient or their carer find:
• The names of the active and inactive ingredients
• The recommended dosage of the medicine
• What the medicine is approved for and how it works
• Warnings and precautions, such as when the medicine should not be taken
• Interactions the medicine might have with food or other medicines
• How to use the medicine properly
• A selection of the most common or most serious side effects
• What to do in the case of an overdose
• How to store the medicine properly
• The name and address of the sponsor

PRODUCT INFORMATION (PI)

The PI document provides health professionals with a summary of the scientific information relevant to the safe and effective use of a prescription medicine. They are technical documents which include information about a medicine’s clinical trials, adverse effects, dosage and administration, overdosage and interaction with other medicines among other things.

Whether you are a pharmacist helping patients to understand their medicine, or a consumer with a concern, MedSearch™ can connect you with important information about prescription medicine.
