Pharmacovigilance: The Unsung Hero of Patient Safety! :pill::woman_health_worker:

Ever wondered​:scream: what happens after a medicine is approved? :thinking:
Most people assume that once a drug :pill:is on the market, it’s :100:% safe. But the truth is some side effects only emerge after millions of people use it. That’s why we need Pharmacovigilance (PV)!

the scope of pharmacovigilance is wide because it deals with various types of reports like ICSR(individual case safety update reports, psur (periodic safety update report etc.

Why is PV a lifesaver?
:white_check_mark: Monitors real-world :globe_with_meridians: drug safety—detecting​:detective: side effects that clinical trials might miss.
:warning: Prevents medical disasters—like the thalidomide tragedy, which led to stricter drug :pill: regulations.
:bar_chart: Helps regulators make informed decisions—such as issuing safety warnings or withdrawing harmful drugs.
:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: Protects patients like YOU :index_pointing_at_the_viewer: and ME :woman_office_worker:- by identifying hidden risks early
