Good Pharmacovigilance Practice

Meaning

Good Pharmacovigilance Practice (GVP) represents a comprehensive set of standards, procedures, and guidelines established to ensure the continuous, systematic monitoring of the safety profile of medicinal products throughout their lifecycle. GVP mandates the rigorous collection, detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. Adherence to GVP is a legal and ethical requirement for pharmaceutical companies and regulatory bodies to protect patient safety in clinical practice.
