Of the total different pharmaceutical specialties found, two did not have their respective package insert. In 45% of package inserts, some of the Mandatory statements were absent. One package insert brought conflicting information about the actual physical aspect of medicine. About the topic Information to patients, 48% of the package inserts were incomplete, and among these, with indications not established by law. All package inserts had complete information relating to topics Legal information and Identification of the product.
