Knowledge and attitudes of patients in primary care on off-label treatment.

CONCLUSION: Patients in primary care possess limited knowledge about off-label treatment. Most patients do not wish to be exposed to such treatment, and are particularly reluctant to have their children exposed to it. In case of serious side effects, half of the patients would sue doctors who had prescribed the off-label therapy. PMID: 29758952 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
