Introduction:The World Health Organization (WHO) defines an Adverse drug reaction (ADR) as a response to a drug which is noxious, unintended, and which occurs at doses normally used in man for the prophylaxis, diagnosis, or therapy of disease, or for the modification of physiological function. Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a major clinical problem and are main cause of death and serious disease in patients and a key cause of drug attrition in the pharmaceutical industry, as nearly more than 90% of drug molecules do not succeed in preclinical/clinical studies due to a deficiency of safety and efficacy. The chief reasons for withdrawal of already approved drugs are cardiovascular and hepatic adverse effects. The main goal was, our future healthcare providers should have basic pharmacovigilance knowledge, how to detect and prevent ADRs in order to rationally reporting ADRs and preventing serious health problems. The main aim was to sensitize all the health care providers regarding Pharmacovigilance activities.
