What’s trending in pharmacovigilance? New podcast episode

Perspective / 21 December 2023

In this festive edition of Drug Safety Matters, we wrap up the year that was and look ahead to the year that will be – with a little help from one of our friends.


WHAT DID THE DRUG SAFETY COMMUNITY ACHIEVE IN 2023 and how will the field develop in 2024? As the year comes to a close, we asked Angela Caro, president of the International Society of Pharmacovigilance, to walk us through current and future trends in pharmacovigilance.

Among her predictions, hear her thoughts on patient engagement – a hot topic that is going to get hotter – as well as the challenges she foresees closest to home in Latin America.
