Four scenarios for the future are set out, all of which take account of already visible trends. envisages rational and restrained consumption patterns. is dominated by fears of iatrogenic harm and hence minimal drug use. The central feature of , in contrast, is confidence in technological progress. , finally, is marked by a Europe without frontiers and minimal state intervention.
The reader is encouraged to reflect without preconceptions on the future of medicines in health care. No ready-made answers are offered; rather, a wealth of information and analysis is provided which serves to underpin decision making and policy development, not just by central government but also by every institution concerned with the role of medicines in health care.
