6/12/2008

HORSHAM, Pa. An upcoming Web site will let consumers play a role in medication safety.

The Institute for Safe Medication Practices has announced that it will soon launch www.consumermedsafety.org, an interactive Web site designed to promote medication safety among consumers.

ISMP homes the Web site will improve collaboration and communication between patients and providers, health literacy, adherence to medication regimens and health outcomes related to medication use.

Features will include sections devoted to preventing medication efforts, medical and drug dictionaries, a news and events section, a section for checking drug interactions and general information about health and diseases.

A visit to the Consumer Med Safety Web site on Thursday turned up an unedited GoDaddy.com page.

Based in the Philadelphia suburb of Horsham, the ISMP is an organization that works to prevent medication errors and promote safe use of medication.
