Why does it matter?
Medicines are developed to be as safe and effective as possible, but they can still cause side effects. It is important for people to report adverse effects to medicines as this information can be used to identify previously unknown issues with those medicines.
Adverse effects sometimes stop patients from completing their treatment, which can lead to even more serious problems. Reporting adverse effects encourages a dialogue between patients and healthcare professionals and helps professionals to identify and investigate unknown or poorly described adverse effects.
The Med Safety app has been developed as part of the WEB-RADR project. WEB-RADR is supported by the Innovative Medicines Initiative Joint Undertaking (IMI JU) under grant agreement n° 115632, resources of which are composed of financial contribution from the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) and EFPIA companies’ in kind contribution.

Health work, have been using this app to report ADR
★★★★★
As someone who works in pharmacovigilance, this is a good app for reporting. It's relatively straightforward and when you search for products it's very interesting to have access to global reporting data. Probably takes some time to understand the forms, but it's not bad on user-friendliness as such.
★★★★★

★★☆☆☆
Tried to register my adverse event to the vaccine twice and had the app crash. Not worth the effort.
★★☆☆☆
Not user-friendly. It keeps sending me back to same page for me to apply my personal details again.
★★☆☆☆
App does not give you option to add date of birth, you must register yr details with every report, and it takes longer than the manual method, not user-friendly at all
