PATTERN OF ADVERSE DRUG REACTIONS IN
A TERTIARY CARE MEDICAL COLLEGE AND
HOSPITAL
Background: Adverse drug events can lead to admission in hospital, prolonga-
tion of hospitalisation, increase in investigation and treatment costs, deformi-
ties, danger to life and even death.
Methods: A retrospective analytical study was conducted of adverse drug re-
action (ADR) reports collected in our ADR Monitoring Centre established in
pharmacology department under the Aegis of Indian Pharmacopoeia Com-
mission (IPC) Ghaziabad (MINISTRY OF Health & Family Welfare, Govt of In-
dia). Data pertained to the period from March 2015 to March 2018.
Results: A total of 1059 reports were analysed. 568(54%) patients were fe-
males and 491(46%) were males. The majority of ADRs were due to Cancer
Chemotherapy agents in 493(46.5%) patients, followed by 182(17%) in HIV
patients, and 162(15%) in TB patients. 726(68.5%) patients recovered com-
pletely at the time filling up of form, 328(31%) were recovering and 5 patients
died. 3 deaths were of snake bite cases and 2 deaths were of MDR TB cases.
Conclusion: Awareness and timely intervention in case of ADR can save many
precious lives.
