Summary

This study looked at whether healthcare professionals in Saudi Arabia are aware of and follow safety measures for the drug leflunomide, used for rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis. Researchers surveyed 302 doctors and pharmacists to see if they received and read safety materials, and if they counseled patients and ordered proper lab tests. The goal was to assess how well the extra safety steps are working, not to test a new treatment.
