German term or phrase: wissenwertes
Here is the pickle:

I am translating a text about a medication. It is entitled "Wissenswertes fuer Fachkreise". At first, I translated this as "Information for Experts" or "Expert Information".

Unfortunately, there is a
section in this document called "Fachinformation", which I would call "Expert Information" as well. This I cannot do, because they are two different titles in German, within the same document, and I want to avoid the confusion by using two different English titles.

Help!

I think I will go with "Reference for Experts", which is in the direction of tips or pointers, but a bit more weighty.

Thank you.
