The producer and the distributor of medicines as well as the physician are obliged to inform the patient about risks and side effects of medicines prior to use. The pharmaceutic producer must inform the physician through respective data sheets and the patient through leaflets inserted in the packages. The value of the latter are doubtful and not always useful. In any case written informations are not sufficient. The physician after clearing up the individual situation has to orally inform the patient taking his intellectual level into account.
