Analgesics in Belgium

Analgesics in Belgium

By contrast with a still favourable performance in 2009, 2010 witnessed an exceptional accumulation of negative factors. First, despite a late awakening in December there were a very limited number of serious infectious disease outbreaks. Even colds were rare until November. Then, the end of the fear regarding the H1N1 flu virus resulted in a backlash: given that both pharmacists and consumers overstocked, sales slumped in the winter of 2010.
