INAUGURAL LECTURE- PROF GEORGE OBENG ADJEI

The tenets of evidence-based medicine mandates that medicines should be tested and shown to be safe and effective before licensing for use in the general population....While medicines licensed for use in adults would be expected to have undergone evaluation ... there is evidence to show that many medicines used in children are prescribed outside the terms of their product license in terms of dosing, indication, route of administration, etc.” ~ Excerpt from Prof. George Obeng Adjei’s abstract.
