Pharmacovigilance

Pharmacovigilance

​The FDA recalled more than 14,000 drugs in the US in the last 10 years, which averages out to approximately four recalls a day. This statistic highlights the importance of ongoing drug safety, also known as Pharmacovigilance. The ongoing tracking of adverse effects after new drugs have been approved by regulatory agencies is one of the key challenges of modern medicine. Given the importance of this work, life sciences companies need qualified and capable clinical professionals to ensure the safety and effectiveness of their drugs.

A bright future is assured for employees within the sector as the global Pharmacovigilance market size is estimated to grow at a CAGR of above 12.8 % over the forecast time frame 2019-2026 and reach the market value of around $10.6bn by 2026, according to Acumen Research. Let EPM Scientific find and deliver top Pharmacovigilance talent when you need it.
