ADR Flashcards
The science and activities relating to the detection,
assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects
and other medicine-related problems
Pharmacovigilance
Pharmacovigilance is aka
Post marketing surveillance
Monitor drugs already available in the marke
Post marketing surveillance
Show how the genetic makeup of an individual or population
affects drug response
Pharmacogenetic

affects drug response
Pharmacogenetic
analysis of genetic determinants of drug efficacy
and toxicity
Pharmacogenomics
Genome wide analysis of genetic determinants of drug efficacy
and toxicity
Pharmacogenomics
Study of the utilization and effects of drugs in large numbers of people
Pharmacoepidemiology
Adverse drug effects / reaction A noxious and unintended reaction which occurs
at _____________ doses in man for prophylaxis,
diagnosis, and therapy of disease
Therapeutic doses
A noxious and unintended reaction which occurs
at therapeutic doses in man for prophylaxis,
diagnosis, and therapy of disease
Adverse drug effects / reaction
Any adverse effect / injury associated with use of drugs in humans whether or not
considered to be drug-related
Adverse drug event
Any preventable event that may lead to
inappropriate drug use or patient harm
Medication error
Special care necessary for
safe and effective use of the
drug
Precautions
Strong advice; statement of
danger
Warning
A drug, procedure, or
surgery should not be used
because it may be harmful to a person
Contraindications
