[The phenacetin kidney--still in the 1990's].
A case of adverse effects of phenacetin is described, and followed by a discussion about the continued use of this drug in Denmark even though it was removed from the pharmacopoeia in 1984. It is stressed, that the free right of prescription enables doctors to continue prescribing drugs, that have been deregistered by the health authorities, and on a scale that is not surveyed by the Statistics of Remedies.
