The round table Educación sanitaria: información al paciente sobre medicamentos (Health education: patient information on drugs) was held in Barcelona (November 17, 1999). Carlos Codina, from the Pharmacy Service at the Hospital Clínico y Provincial de Barcelona, chaired the round table in which several health professionals presented their experience around patient-communication and drug-information. All presentations and discussions were included in the monograph number 28 (“Monografías Dr. Antonio Esteve”, only published in Spanish).
