As a preliminary test it can be very helpful to compare the data with those in other countries and to ascertain whether a signal is supported by similar experiences reported to other national center.

Important disadvantages, especially in the Netherlands, are underreporting and the absence of up-to-date consumption figures, which are responsible for the inability of the system to measure the exact frequency of occurrence of reactions and to compare the safety of different drugs. In view of the aims of VR, it may be argued whether this is really a shortcoming. It is now well recognized that the assessment of the frequencies of reactions requires other methods of investigation. VR is especially useful for the study of characteristic reactions with a clear temporal relationship with the drug.
