The Monthly Index of Medical Specialities Ireland (MIMS Ireland) is a well-established prescribing guide delivered to medical practitioners in Ireland. It was founded by Dr John O'Connell, who came up with the concept of a small, concise medical guide that was to become MIMS.〔 MIMS Ireland is used by the Irish Medicines Board to convey information on drug safety, and is recommended by the Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland (PSI) as part of the premises requirements for pharmacies. It is also listed as a reference for the use of drugs in sports by the Irish Sports Council. MIMS Ireland celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2010. == Origin == Dr John O'Connell, an Irish general practitioner who later became the Minister for Health, proposed to the English publisher Alf Morgan the idea of a compact, user-friendly medical guide which was to become MIMS – the Monthly Index of Medical Specialities. Since drug names in Ireland were somewhat different from those in the UK, Alf Morgan and John O'Connell both set up their own version of the guide in their respective country: MIMS in the UK and MIMS Ireland in the Republic of Ireland. The MIMS concept was subsequently taken up by a number of other English speaking countries around the world who set up their own versions of MIMS.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MIMS Ireland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
