The UK's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has published Drug Safety Update for October 2008 (PDF).
This issue provides a safety update for ergot-derived dopamine agonists and antibiotics in premature labour. There is also a hot topic discussion regarding the risk of illicit use with decongestants and a stop press covering the narrow therapeutic index of theophylline and its potential for misuse.
