Pharmacovigilance

Pharmacovigilance is defined by WHO as the detection, recording, assessment and understanding of adverse drug reactions or other safety issues associated with medicines. The effective implementation of mechanisms to detect adverse reactions aims to maximize the benefit and minimize the risk of the use of medicines, encouraging their safer, more effective and rational use.
