HL Deb 13 February 2003 vol 644 c143WA
Lord Ashley of Stoke

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the findings of the Committee on Safety of Medicines have encouraged doctors to prescribe the medical drug Ebixa for patients with Alzheimer's disease. [HL1543]

Lord Hunt of Kings Heath

The Committee on Safety of Medicines advises the licensing authority on the quality, safety and efficacy of medicines. It does not advise doctors on what products they should prescribe.
