CURRENT SCENARIO OF PHARMACOVIGILANCE IN INDIA
Journal Title: Journal of Drug Discovery and Therapeutics - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 9
Abstract
Even though Pharmacovigilance is still in its infancy in India, it is not new to India and still there exists very limited knowledge about the discipline. While major advancements of the discipline of pharmacovigilance have taken place in the Western countries, not much has been achieved in India. However, with more and more clinical trials and other clinical research activities being conducted in India, there is an immense need to understand the importance of pharmacovigilance and how it impacts the life cycle of the product. This will enable integration of good pharmacovigilance practice in the processes and procedures to help ensure regulatory compliance and enhance clinical trial safety and postmarketing surveillance.
