Looking for patients who use/have used retinoids

The Medicines and Healthcare product regulatory Agency (MHRA) is holding a meeting to gather the views and experiences of patients and healthcare professionals who use retinoid containing medicines. Input is being sought particularly on the various materials and systems for pregnancy prevention that are being reviewed at a European level.

MHRA is looking for patients who are taking or have used any of the retinoid containing medicines; with a focus particularly on the oral retinoids isotretinoin, acitretin and alitretinoin and their experiences of the information provided about pregnancy prevention. Patients will also be asked for input on proposals to update the current materials and systems. The meeting will be held from 10.30am to 1pm, on 3 November at MHRA’s offices - 151 Buckingham Palace Road, London, SW1W 9SZ. Reasonable travel expenses will be reimbursed. Personal details of participants will not be shared and all information given at the meeting will be treated in strict confidence.
