title: [The drug information service in the hospital].
abstract: A Drug Information Service (MID) delivers competent information, free from influences of industry. Users are mainly physicians and pharmacists, who are not able to solve a particular pharmacologic problem by their own means. For many years such MIDs are operated in several countries by clinical pharmacists. In Switzerland, too, there is particular interest in drug-oriented information for years. In this article a short overview on basic informations and first experiences concerning this domain are presented.
