    Abstract As the world edges towards relaxing the lockdown measures taken to control the spread of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), governments have started putting in place a variety of measures to avoid a second peak in the number of infections. The implementation of and adherence to such measures will be key components of any successful lockdown exit strategy. Ranging from expanded testing and widespread use of technology to building the public's trust in the post COVID-19 world, there is a role for pharmacists to play. In this commentary, these measures and the potential contribution of pharmacists to their successful implementation are outlined and discussed.

    Abstract Objective: Inclusion of relevant effectiveness and safety outcomes in economic evaluation of health technologies is required to aid efficient healthcare decisions. Our objective was to identify the key issues related to the inclusion of adverse events (AEs) in economic evaluation and explore perspectives for good practice recommendations to handle these issues.
    Methods: We focused on the frequently encountered methodological issues related to the integration of AEs in economic evaluations of health technologies. We distinguished the following elements: the incorporation of AEs in decision models, the terminology of AEs, the estimation of AEs consequences in terms of quality of life (QoL) and costs, and the exploration of the uncertainty related to the impact of AEs on the economic results.
    Results: We illustrated and discussed each of the identified issues by giving health technology assessment examples. We focused on the extent to which the integration of AEs in decision models can be improved by dealing with the lack of relevant real-world safety data, estimating the consequences of AEs (eg, for costs and QoL loss), exploring the impacts of AEs that are not adequately captured in current measurement of health-related QoL, and identifying the need for development of a good terminology of relevant types of AEs to be incorporated in economic evaluation.
    Conclusion: Based on a reflection the key methodological issues related to the incorporation of adverse drug events in economic evaluations, we suggested several recommendations to serve a starting point for health technology assessment agencies and researchers to develop good research practices in this field.

    Abstract Objectives: The SF-6Dv1 is a preference-based measure derived from the SF-36 for use in quality-adjusted life-year estimation for cost-utility analysis. Country-specific value sets for SF-6Dv1 are needed to reflect societal preferences but none are available for Lebanon and other Arabic countries. This study aimed to generate a value set for SF-6Dv1 for Lebanon and to compare results with the UK set.
    Methods: A sample of 249 health states defined by the SF-6Dv1 were valued by a representative sample of 577 members of the Lebanon general population, using standard gamble. Several multivariate regression models at mean and individual level were fitted to estimate utilities for all SF-6Dv1 states with selection of best fitting models based on predictive ability, consistency, and model fit. The best fitting models were compared with those fitted in the UK study.
    Results: Data from 553 eligible respondents providing 3308 valuations were used for the analysis. Lebanese values were consistently higher than UK values, indicating differences in preferences, and there were no negative values. The random effects model using only main effects was the best performing model. There were inconsistencies in 2 dimensions, thereby consistent models were estimated with values ranging from 0.367 to 1. The results are consistent with the UK results.
    Conclusions: This study provides the first population-based value set for SF-6Dv1 health states for Lebanon, making it possible to generate quality-adjusted life-years for cost-utility analysis studies. The potential for applications of a standardized utility measure is enormous both in Lebanon and all Arab countries.
