[Drug vigilance: opinion survey among residents of a university hospital].
To approach perception of drug safety by young practitioners, a nine item questionnaire has been mailed to the 263 residents from Toulouse Hospital. The analysis of the 116 returned questionnaires shows that pharmacovigilance centres are still badly known in France. The level of under-reporting of adverse drug reactions is 44%. However, it decreases when the Regional Pharmacovigilance Centre sends informations to the prescribers. In the University Hospital, the regional pharmacovigilance centre is the more used source of drug information by residents. However, 66% of the residents do not know that spontaneous reporting is compulsory in France and 75% are unable to find the address of the Regional Pharmacovigilance Centre.
