What is Pharmacovigilance?

Monitoring Medicine Safety

At Platinum Pharma, patient safety remains central to everything we do. We continuously monitor the safety and quality of our medicines to identify potential risks, support responsible use, and protect patients throughout the product lifecycle.

Patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and members of the public can report any suspected side effect, adverse event, or product-quality concern involving a Platinum Pharma product.

Pharmacovigilance is the science and practice of detecting, assessing, understanding, and preventing adverse effects or other medicine-related problems.

It enables pharmaceutical companies, healthcare professionals, and regulatory authorities to continuously evaluate the benefits and potential risks of medicines after they become available for use.

Every safety report contributes to a better understanding of how medicines are used and helps support safer treatment decisions.

What is an Adverse Event?

Understanding Unexpected Medical Occurrences

An adverse event is any unwanted or unexpected medical occurrence experienced after using a medicine. It does not necessarily mean that the medicine caused the event.

An adverse event may include

  • A new symptom or medical condition
  • Worsening of an existing condition
  • An unexpected laboratory result
  • Hospitalisation or prolonged hospitalisation
  • Disability or significant incapacity
  • A life-threatening event
  • A congenital anomaly or birth defect
  • Death

Reports are assessed by qualified safety professionals to determine whether further investigation or action may be required.

You should submit a report even when you are uncertain whether the medicine caused the event.
