What is pharmacovigilance?

“Pharmacovigilance ” (PV) is the science and activities relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug related problem. Hence,  Its aims are to enhance patient care and patient safety and to support public health programmes by providing reliable, balanced information for the effective assessment of the benefit-risk profile of medicines and vaccines.

Is pharmacovigilance and drug safety is same?

In reality Pharmacovigilance is same as drug safety. In addition Drug Safety is a broad term that describes the collection, analysis, monitoring and prevention of adverse effects in drugs and therapies. However, Drug Safety Management is a completely scientific and process-driven within pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industry.

What is an adverse event?

The definition of an adverse event is any reaction within a patient’s body caused by a drug or development molecule – a side effect.  A serious adverse event is a life-threatening side effect that causes hospitalization, incapacity, permanent damage or, in extreme cases, the death of a patient. Adverse event reporting is must for all clinical research investigators, even if the side effects are only suspected.

The role of pharmacovigilance is to determine which adverse events cross the line of a drug’s efficacy. In other words, analyzing which side effects are worth the risk to patients compared with how effective they are at treating a disease. For instance, chemotherapy may cause some serious side effects but when faced with life-threatening cancer, these side effects are considered acceptable given the potential to cure a patient. However, if a drug used to cure a headache caused similar side effects, the risk to the patient would be considered too great and the benefit not substantial enough to justify the potential damage.
