description | The monitoring and reporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) through pharmacovigilance is vital to patient safety and rational prescribing. In India, Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) initiated Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI) to report ADRs through ADRs monitoring centres in India.
