Risks and benefits of drugs used in the management of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Spontaneous reports of suspected adverse drug reactions to regulatory bodies and market authorization holders are important in pharmacovigilance. Follow-up information, which can be difficult to obtain, is often required from reporters; therefore, we developed targeted follow-up letters that we hoped would m...
