What is Good ...Medical Instructions




I haven't been able to source many good examples of medical instruction leaflets, so I am going to source examples from the medicines I have at home. (a bit of primary research)

Examples of general instruction manuals:




I love the simplicity of this manual ...I can then expand upon this with writing to inform the viewers furthers.

  1. they say give a 27 year old or younger a page of instructions and they will go straight to google

    i'm a wayfinding specialist and have a phrase 'see with strangers eyes'
    and often thought that's is what is missing in instructions for use...take out the plethora of warnings and dangers and it's not my fault if you dry your dog in our micro wave!! - then your left with a much smaller task

    i love your ideas for good and bad instructions...thank you

    we still need printed simple instructions for uncomplicated 'gadgets'

    i know we have planet wide language problems - and even german takes up a third more space than english which can undermine a great graphic layout lol

    cheers tom

    i'd like to join in the discussion
