Drug safety is an important consideration for all stakeholders involved with drugs,
which includes health care professionals, who are prescribers of the product;
patients, who consume the drug; drug regulatory authorities and pharmaceuticals companies who
are involved in manufacturing and marketing of drugs.
It's
well known from the principles of pharmacology that all drugs are
associated with the possibility of adverse events. They are prescribed
only when the beneficial effects override consideration of
any adverse events, which may result from its
use.
Drugs
come to clinical practice only after they are proven safe in clinical
trials. However, drugs are associated with rare adverse events which can
surface anytime during their life cycle. Hence drug safety needs to be
monitored throughout its life.
This
has lead to the initiation of pharmacovigilance activity by
Ipca.
