Abstract
Pharmacovigilance plays a pivotal role in ensuring the safety and efficacy of medicines throughout their lifecycle. With the increasing complexity of drug therapy, polypharmacy, and global drug distribution, monitoring adverse drug reactions (ADRs) has become a critical public health responsibility. This project explores pharmacovigilance as a systematic framework designed to detect, assess, understand, and prevent adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. Through an extensive review of published review articles and regulatory documents, this study synthesizes existing evidence on pharmacovigilance systems, reporting mechanisms, signal detection methodologies, and regulatory practices. Key challenges such as underreporting, lack of awareness among healthcare professionals, and limitations of spontaneous reporting systems are highlighted. The findings emphasize the need for strengthened pharmacovigilance infrastructure, improved reporting culture, and integration of advanced data analytics. The study concludes that a robust pharmacovigilance framework significantly contributes to safer therapeutic practices and improved patient outcomes.
Pharmacovigilance is an essential scientific and regulatory discipline concerned with the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse drug reactions and other medicine-related problems throughout the life cycle of medicinal products. As pre-marketing clinical trials involve limited and selected popul...

In recent decades, there has been a significant increase in the global use of herbal medicines and phytotherapeutic products, driven by the widespread perception that “natural” products are inherently safer than synthetic pharmacotherapy, as well as by their broad availability and long-standing traditional use. However...

Despite advances in pharmacogenomics that have led to innovative therapeutic strategies, substantial interindividual variability in drug efficacy and toxicity persists. Both endogenous and exogenous factors contribute to this unexplained variation, resulting in suboptimal treatment effectiveness, unnecessary healthcare...

Polypharmacy, commonly defined as the concurrent use of multiple medications, has emerged as a significant global health concern, especially among elderly patients with multimorbidity. It is associated with an increased risk of adverse drug reactions, drug–drug interactions, prolonged hospital stays, and poor medicatio...

Post-marketing drug safety surveillance relies overwhelmingly on data from high-income
countries (HICs), creating a critical evidentiary blind spot for global health. Although lowand middle-income countries (LMICs) represent over 80% of the world’s population, they
contribute less than 1% of individual case safety repo...
