Abstract : 

Systematic review of the technical specifications (4.6 and 5.3 paragraph) of the most frequently used drugs in Spain, from NHS, and the information provided by PubMed according to a standard search pattern with respect to their influence on male fertility. As a result of this we find that 15 of 29 active substances studied have no data about male fertility in their technical data sheets, 18 of this 29 have no data about male fertility from PubMed and 9 don’t have any information coming from either source we used. 3 medicines have matching results from the two sources and other 2 found discrepancies. In 13 of the 29 drugs studied the information about adverse effects on male fertility was found in one of the two sources of information reviewed. It’s demonstrated that it’s necessary clear, concise and contrasted information.
