Abstract

Recent years, particularly the COVID-19 pandemic, can be considered a turning point for pharmacovigilance and pharmacoepidemiology in terms of their role in drug safety and drug utilisation monitoring in clinical practice [1]. Researchers operating in the fields of pharmacovigilance and pharmacoepidemiology have extensive knowledge about approved medications, many of which have been or are currently undergoing clinical trials for repurposing. In this context, clinical pharmacologists’ knowledge can be used and translated to optimise dosing and treatment regimens and to assess the relationship between active compound exposure and adverse drug reactions (ADR) or adverse events following immunisation (AEFI), with the crucial aims of optimising drugs or vaccines’ efficacy and ensuring patients’ safety.
