Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring

Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) Monitoring involves systematically tracking and analyzing any harmful or unintended effects caused by medications after they are approved for use. This process helps healthcare providers and regulators identify, assess, and manage potential risks, ensuring medication safety for patients. By collecting reports from medical professionals, patients, and researchers, ADR monitoring aims to detect patterns or rare side effects that might not have been evident during clinical trials, ultimately preventing harm and guiding safe medication use.
