Abstract

Monitoring adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and guaranteeing drug safety depend heavily on pharmacovigilance (PV). On order to properly contribute to patient safety as future healthcare professionals, students need to be well-versed on PV principles and practices. Pharmacy instructors are in a unique position to raise healthcare students' understanding of pharmacovigilance and encourage an ADR reporting culture. This message highlights the critical role that educators play in bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application by examining the tactics, difficulties, and results related to incorporating pharmacovigilance into pharmacy education.
