Electronic leaflets for veterinary medicinal products have too small font size
| 04 September 2025 |
The Danish Medicines Agency monitors the readability of the electronic leaflets uploaded to DKMAnet. This is done by taking samples from the marked.

It is important that you are able to find information about your medicine in the Package Leaflet at any time, even if the package leaflet from your medicine pack is lost. At the moment, we sample leaflets for veterinary medicinal products. In these samples we have found that many leaflets have too small font size when printed.
