The International Society of Drug Bulletins (ISDB) is a worldwide network of bulletins on drugs and therapeutics, which are financially and intellectually independent of the pharmaceutical industry.
ISDB was founded in 1986 with the support of the WHO Regional Office for Europe, and particularly of Graham Dukes and Inga Lunde. Its overall aim is to assist the development of independent drug bulletins and to facilitate cooperation among them.
Work of the Society
ISDB holds a General Assembly every three years which provides an excellent forum for members to meet and exchange information. In addition, this allows ISDB members to meet with other attendees, such as producers of formularies, people in drug information centres and other publishers of independent drug and therapeutic information that are not already part of the ISDB network.
To help independent drugs bulletins achieve high professional standards, ISDB organises regional workshops where people working on long established bulletins can share their experience with those starting new ones. Such meetings have been held in Algeria, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Philippines, Italy, Holland and Spain.
ISDB’s priorities are:
- to help all independent drug bulletins achieve the highest professional standards,
- to support the development of new drug bulletins,
- to identify independent drug bulletins that are not part of the ISDB network and develop a relationship with them
- to encourage members to help health professionals communicate more effectively with consumers,
- to work with producers of formularies and people in drug information centres,
- to campaign for drug regulatory authorities to serve public health first and foremost, and
- to campaign for an independent WHO, ie independent of funding from the pharmaceutical industry.
