Pharmacovigilance Standards

Meaning

Pharmacovigilance standards represent the globally recognized, systematic set of procedures and regulatory requirements for monitoring, assessing, understanding, and preventing adverse effects or any other drug-related problems throughout the lifecycle of a medicinal product. These rigorous standards are essential for ensuring the ongoing safety profile of hormonal therapies and other pharmaceuticals once they are released into the broader patient population. Adherence to these standards is a mandatory clinical and ethical obligation for all pharmaceutical entities and regulatory bodies.
