What is the Local Drug Information System?
The Local Drug Information System (LDIS) is a process which will assess and respond to drug information by issuing drug alerts where relevant, as a response to an immediate risk from drugs.
This system will collate reports on new, potent or contaminated drugs to be verified and will be shared to deliver an agreed response.
