Pharmacovigilance is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as “the science and activities relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problem”.

 

Reporting Suspected Adverse Reactions 

Most of us will not experience any problems when using medicines. However, all medicines have some risks associated with their use and so a small number of people may experience an adverse reaction (also known as a side effect).

What is an adverse reaction (side effect)? 

An adverse reaction is formally defined as a “response to a medicinal product which is noxious and unintended”. This definition includes any harm associated with the use of a medicine including use following overdose, misuse or error.

What should I do if I think I may have experienced an adverse reaction (side effect)? 

If you are concerned that you have had a suspected adverse reaction to a medicine, you may need to contact your healthcare professional who can advise on any treatment that may be needed. They can also report the issue to EIPICo on your behalf.

If you wish to directly report an adverse reaction you can use the EIPICo’s online reporting service. This includes patients, caregivers, other members of the public and healthcare professionals.

Why is it important for me to report suspected adverse reactions? 

Monitoring the quality, efficacy and safety of our products throughout their life cycle, from clinical development to prescription and consumption, is a priority to protect patient safety. Some rare or late onset adverse events are often only detected at this time. In order to maximize our knowledge on the use of our portfolio in real-world conditions, EIPICo.'s Pharmacovigilance department has established an effective organization to passively and actively collect pharmacovigilance data from all sources of information around the world.


 
 Report an Adverse Event
