Руководство предназначено для оказания помощи правительствам стран, в которых наблюдаются низкие уровни потребления контролируемых веществ, в исчислении их потр...ебностей, с тем чтобы они могли затем представлять МККН исчисления и оценки, достоверно отражающие эти потребности. Руководство могло бы также быть полезным для правительств тех стран, в которых уровни потребления некоторых веществ несоразмерно высоки. Надеюсь, что настоящее Руководство будет широко использоваться национальными компетентными органами и в конечном счете поможет им в подготовке исчислений и оценок, отражающих их фактические потребности в контролируемых на международном уровне веществах.

It is important to have up-to-date information not only on the indications for, and the dose of a particular medicine, but also the contra-indications and reasons for special care, possible side effects and interactions with other medicine or medicines. The patient must also have information on how to use the preparation, what side effects may occur, and when to return for help.
