Pharmacovigilance & ADR

What is Pharmacovigilance? Pharmacovigilance is a systematic program created to oversee medicines and their potential hazards. The World Health Organization (WHO) developed this initiative, describing it as: "The scientific discipline and practices focused on identifying, evaluating, comprehending, and preventing harmful drug reactions or any other medication-related issues."

What are Adverse Events? Adverse Events are unwanted and harmful reactions that may occasionally happen when using medical products at their recommended doses.

Why Should You Report Adverse Events? Reporting serves as the fundamental pillar of pharmacovigilance activities. By documenting adverse events, you help build comprehensive safety data for Horizon Pharma medications, creating a complete risk profile for our products and participating in the pharmacovigilance framework that enhances patient well-being.
