Interaction monographs
Interaction monographs contain the monograph title, a summary, the detailed discussion of the interaction(s), and the list of references cited in the text.
The monograph is often divided into sub-sections. These typically include:
-
Clinical evidence - detailing one, two or more illustrative examples of the interaction, followed by other supportive clinical evidence
-
Mechanism
-
Importance and management - a short discussion designed to aid rapid clinical decision making
References cited in abstracts or reviews are linked by superscript numbers to the citations listed at the end of each record. These superscript numbers act as links to the corresponding citation.
Appropriate links to other associated documents and to tables or figures are included.
The Reviewed on date is the date on which the monograph was fully re-evaluated and updated as necessary. All monographs are routinely re-evaluated and revalidated on a rolling cycle.
The Updated on date is the date on which the monograph was last modified outside the full re-evaluation cycle.
The monographs do not carry the drug interaction Hazard/Safety ratings used in Stockley's Interaction Alerts because of the difficulties of applying them to monographs that cover multiple pairs of drug-drug interactions.
