Prescrire's ratings for new drugs and new indications

PRESCRIRE'S RATINGS

Our judgement is based on the therapeutic advance of the product in the relevant clinical situation. It considers not only the inherent value of each product in terms of its harm-benefit balance, but also its advantages and disadvantages relative to existing treatments. Note that the relative value of new products can vary from one country to another.

Offers an advantage

The product has some value but does not fundamentally change the present therapeutic practice.

Possibly helpful

POSSIBLY HELPFUL

Nothing new
