7th Annual Risk Management and Pharmacovigilance Summit


No doubt that the aim of every pharmaceutical company and public, in general, is to have a strong, transparent and proactive pharmacovigilance system. Patient safety depends not only on safe products but also on the appropriate use of these products after they are approved for the market. That is why the right risk communication to the public is crucial. The world is moving quickly and so is pharmacovigilance – new technologies and trends are coming with many benefits but threats as well. The pharmaceutical industry has now a clear goal – to understand the patient and to have individual approach to the patients – this is reflected in pharmacovigilance as well.
