EVALUATION OF THE PILOT STUDY
The study proves that direct involvement of consumers in reporting drug related problems is an effective means to strengthen the Drug Regulatory Authority’s (DRA) existing surveillance system. Responses to reporters / complainants are important to gain public trust however care should be taken when giving statements in order to avoid issues of litigation and unnecessary alarm to the public. Commitment and support of drug retailers and pharmacist play a vital role in the success of the program.The budget for advocacy materials and constraints in manpower posed additional challenges for the DRA.
