Abstract

In the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare, where the tapestry of medications expands with each passing year, ensuring the safety of these interventions remains paramount. This fundamental principle forms the bedrock of pharmacovigilance, a multifaceted discipline dedicated to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects associated with pharmaceutical products. With the growing prominence of modern medicines alongside the resurgence of alternative therapies, the field of pharmacovigilance faces an ever-increasing challenge: safeguarding patient well-being in the face of diverse pharmacological landscapes.
