Drug Marketing in Tropical Regions and Its Effect on Pharmacovigilance Awareness and Reporting
Abstract: Drug marketing practices in tropical regions present a complex interplay between pharmaceutical promotion, healthcare infrastructure limitations, and public health outcomes. These regions – characterized by high disease burden, socio-economic disparities, and diverse healthcare delivery systems – often experience unique challenges in ensuring safe and rational drug use. Aggressive and sometimes unregulated marketing strategies by pharmaceutical companies may significantly influence prescribing behavior, patient compliance, and, ultimately, pharmacovigilance systems. Pharmacovigilance, defined as …

Pharmacovigilance And Drug-Induced Toxicities: A Clinical Perspective
Abstract: Pharmacovigilance, which aims to detect, assess, and prevent medication-induced toxicities and adverse drug reactions (ADRs), is a crucial part of healthcare. This study examines the several kinds of drug-induced toxicities, such as idiosyncratic, dose-dependent, and allergic reactions, and emphasizes the function of clinical pharmacists in the tracking and treatment of these illnesses. Pharmacovigilance systems are crucial because they can identify and handle drug-related safety issues that might not surface during …

Impact of Vaccine Awareness Campaigns on Pharmacovigilance Reporting and Public Safety Monitoring
Abstract: Vaccination programs have significantly contributed to the reduction of infectious diseases worldwide; however, their success is closely tied to public confidence and robust safety monitoring systems. Pharmacovigilance plays a critical role in identifying, assessing, and preventing adverse events following immunization (AEFI). In recent years, vaccine awareness campaigns have emerged as a pivotal strategy to improve public knowledge, reduce vaccine hesitancy, and enhance reporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). This review …

Enhancing Patient Safety: A Study On Adr Monitoring In Tertiary Care Hospitals
Abstract: Background: Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a major concern in healthcare, causing patient morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study was to investigate the adverse drug reactions in a tertiary care hospital. Methods: From January to July 2024, an observational study was carried out at Bangalore's Akash Super Specialty Hospital. 51 individuals had their demographics, medications, and suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) gathered. The Naranjo scale was used to …

Electoral Engagement and Political Representation: An Analytical Study of Women’s Participation in India’s Democratic Process
Abstract: This study investigates the persistent disconnect in women’s political participation in India, where their consistently high voter turnout stands in stark contrast to their minimal presence in Parliament. Although constitutional provisions guarantee equality and women demonstrate strong engagement as voters, their representation within formal political structures remains disproportionately low. Using the 2024 Lok Sabha elections as a primary reference point, the research interrogates core questions surrounding this imbalance: Why does …

Histoplasma capsulatum (Dimorphic Fungus) in India: Biological Features, Virulence Mechanisms, and Clinical Implications of Histoplasmosis.
Abstract: Histoplasmosis is a systemic mycosis caused by the thermally dimorphic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum. Infection is acquired primarily by inhalation of infectious microconidia and may range from asymptomatic infection to severe disseminated disease. Although histoplasmosis has classically been associated with the river valleys of the Americas, it is being increasingly recognized in Asia, including India, where it frequently mimics tuberculosis, leishmaniasis, lymphoma, and leprosy, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. Cutaneous …

AI-Powered Pharmacovigilance: Revolutionizing Adverse Drug Reaction Detection, Reporting, and Future Perspectives-A Review
Abstract: Pharmacovigilance is very important in drug safety as it monitors, identifies and prevents adverse drug reactions (ADR). Conventional pharmacovigilance systems are usually limited by underreporting and delay in signal detection as well as the inability to scale up. The pharmacovigilance sphere is undergoing a seismic shift with the arrival of AI. The use of AI-driven tools, such as machine learning and natural language processing, is transforming how ADR detection is …

Exploring the Relationship Between Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation and Waterhouse–Friderichsen Syndrome
Abstract: Waterhouse–Friderichsen syndrome was first identified as a distinct clinical entity by Little in 1901. He described four cases from his own observations and, after examining existing literature, identified eight additional cases that he considered previously unclassified. One case in his report may have involved purpura resulting from a different cause. The knowledge of this unusual disorder developed slowly from several significant clinical observations and case reports during the first two …
