[Tox-Didact:CD-ROM for toxicology education. Value in hospital toxicology]

New teaching techniques should allow students more independence in their training, particularly in learning from problems and using clinical reasoning. We designed Tox-Didact, a modular multimedia educational software program, which is suitable for both students and professionals, regardless of their orientation (pharmacy or medicine) or level. Each module concerns four domains: diagnosis, biological monitoring, curative treatment and prevention. Tox-Didact is multidisciplinary, interactive, simple to use and reliable. Nineteen modules are now being prepared. In final form, Tox-Didact will cover all the acute and chronic pathologies of toxicology.
