When a patient experiences something unexpected, harmful or negative while taking a Roche medicine, this is called a side effect (also sometimes referred to as an Adverse Event).
An adverse event (AE) is any untwoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial subject administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event (AE) can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom or disease temporarily associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.
Examples of potential side effects / adverse events include:
Even if you don't know what caused the potential side effect or if you suspect that it was not caused by the medicine, the potential side effect still needs to be reported.
