[Comparative relevance of declaration of side effects by patients and health professionals].

Introduction: Drug-induced adverse events have been accessible to patient's spontaneous reporting in France and such notifications have been steadily increasing since 2011. However, these notifications are still shrouded with medical perplexity and are sometimes subjected to partial caution in their interpretation by the patient's physician. We aimed to evaluate and compare prospectively the relevance of such spontaneous notifications with those provided by healthcare professionals to the French Pharmacovigilance Center of Nice-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.
