Prescription Medicine

If you are prescribed medicine and you want more information  the  Swedish medical industry organisation FASS’s website details all prescription medicine.  It enables you to search the database for a medicine and get a comprehensive description (in Swedish). It also describes sicknesses and their symptoms and lists support groups and organisations.

The same product information is available on The Medical Products Agency’s website Läkemedelsverket. This organisation is the Swedish national authority responsible for regulation and surveillance of the development, manufacturing and sale of drugs and other medicinal products. Some information is available in English and in Swedish you can get information about specific medicines and treatment.
