A new version for Adverse reaction (ADR) reporting has now been implemented into the Virtual Radiopharmacy Platform VIRRAD, has been updated and a means of reporting Defective Products also incorporated. The system for recording Adverse reactions to Radiopharmaceuticals The ADR database now matches that previously operated by the EANM in collaboration with the UK Radiopharmacy Group. Please note that although some semi-confidential information may be requested when reporting ADR's not all this information is put into the public domain.

The Defective Products reporting system provides an opportunity to share experiences of this type with other colleagues but doesn't obviate the need to contact suppliers directly about problems of this type.
