Although the seal may also be used in Latin, the flags recorded in use so far are only vertical flags with the seal inscribed in Croatian.

The first school of medicine was established during the French rule in Trogir in 1806 as the St. Lasarus School, that soon was merged into the Zadar University, but it was closed in 1811, and was succeeded only with a Midwives School in Zadar, opened in 1820. The School of Medicine was established by a decree in 1944, but due to the war, it never begun teaching. In 1963 a postgraduate course was established and eventually in 1974 the School of Medicine of the University of Zagreb established its courses in Split, in the full range in 1979. The independent School of Medicine within the University of Split was eventually established in 1997.
