The MHRA collaborated with the Uppsala Monitoring Centre, a World Organisation Centre for International Drug Monitoring, for th third annual social media campaign in 2018 to develop more infographics. The 2018 campaign focuses particularly on the safe use of medicines in babies, children, and pregnant and breastfeeding women.
The animation above and infographics below were developed from the SCOPE (Strengthening Collaborations to Operate Pharmacovigilance in Europe) Joint Action project as part of the first EU wide social media campaign led by the MHRA in 2016.
