Abstract

In the last few years informative campaigns concerning medicinal drugs and driving have been carried out in several European Union countries. The aim of this article is to take a look at these campaigns and our own experience with a view to analysing the points that should be highlighted in them, the main types of drugs which affect driving, advice to patient-drivers, and, finally, giving some examples of campaigns undertaken in these last years. Of course, the groups concerned, professionals - physicians and pharmacists -, patients, the public in general, will determine the characteristics of what to include.
