Abstract:

Background: The causality assessment system proposed by the WHO collaborating centre for international drug monitoring, the Uppsala monitoring centre (WHO-UMC) and the Naranjo probability scale are the generally accepted and most widely used methods for causality assessment. Both these scales are structured, transparent, consistent, and easy to apply with distinct advantages. The PvPI recommends use of WHO-UMC scale while many clinicians prefer Naranjo scale for its simplicity. As both these scales are used very widely in practise, it is important to study the level of agreement among them, to

Abstract:

Abstract Background: To develop a structured and harmonized causality assessment method has been a holy grail in pharmacovigilance. The Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI) recommends the use of the World Health Organization-Uppsala Monitoring Centre (WHO-UMC) scale, whereas many clinicians prefer the Naranjo algorithm for its simplicity. There is no universally accepted method for the causality grading of ADRs. In the present study, we assessed agreement and correlation between the two widely used causality assessment scales, that is, the WHO-UMC criteria and the Naranjo algorithm. Mat

Abstract:

ADRs usually do not present with unique clinical and laboratory findings making it difficult to demarcate them from the concurrent illness. For the estimation of the probability that a drug caused an adverse event several methods have been developed namely, the WHO-UMC criteria, the Naranjo probability scale, the Kramer scale and the Karch and Lasagna scale. But none of the available assessment methods have been shown to produce a precise and reliable quantitative estimation of relationship likelihood. The present study was planned to compare the WHO-UMC causality assessment criteria and the N

Abstract:

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in countries having limited healthcare resources. The ofloxacin is an antimicrobial used for treating several bacterial infections. The ofloxacin, belonging to quinolone group of drugs, is bactericidal and acts by inhibition of bacterial DNA gyrase. Among the adverse drug reaction of ofloxacin, skin rashes are rare. An ofloxacin-induced maculopapular rash is the unique rare condition in the infant. The present case report was assessing the causality in ofloxacin induced maculopapular rash in the infant. Naranjo Adverse

Abstract:

The combination of gabapentin and nortriptyline is used as the first line drug treatment for management of neuropathic pain; however adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are one of the main causes for discontinuation of the therapy. This is a case study of erythematous maculopapular rash induced by combination of gabapentin and nortriptyline along with its causality assessment. A 55-year-old female came with complaint of back pain for 1 month. She was diagnosed as a case of L1 acute osteoporotic disc compression fracture. The patient was then administered combination tablet of gabapentin and nortript

<strong>Introduction:</strong> Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) cause considerable morbidity and mortality worldwide. Early detection, evaluation and monitoring of ADRs are essential to reduce harm to patients and thus improve public health. Spontaneous reporting system (SRS) by health care professionals is common method for reporting suspected ADRs. Chances of ADRs in medicine department are high due to various factors. ADR monitoring and evaluation are the key components of effective drug regulation systems, clinical practice and public health programmes. <strong>Aim:</strong> To

Abstract:

<strong>Abstract</strong> The method of assessing causality between adverse events and suspect drugs is the most challenging task in pharmacovigilance. It requires attentive consideration of both the adverse events and suspect drugs, patient-related factors, and co-suspect drugs and other medical conditions of the patient. Though different methods were developed to assess causality, no single method has been proved to produce an accurate or authentic ascertainable evaluation of the causal relationship. Hence, causality assessment has become an important step in evaluating drug safety. Due to a
