Pharmacovigilance and Toxicology: A Comprehensive Review of Current Practices and Future Directions
Authors: John Smith, Jane Doe, Robert Johnson
Pharmacovigilance and toxicology are critical disciplines in ensuring drug safety and public health. This comprehensive review synthesizes current practices, regulatory frameworks, and emerging trends in pharmacovigilance, with a focus on the integration of toxicological assessments. We discuss the evolution of pharmacovigilance systems, the role of real-world data, and the challenges of adverse drug reaction reporting. The review highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, incorporating clinical, epidemiological, and toxicological perspectives to enhance drug safety monitoring. Key findings include the need for improved data sharing, the adoption of artificial intelligence in signal detection, and the harmonization of global regulatory standards. This paper provides a roadmap for future research and policy development in pharmacovigilance and toxicology.
