Abstract

Pharmacovigilance, which monitors adverse drug reactions (ADRs), plays a crucial role in ensuring patient safety within healthcare facilities. This study analyzes ADRs recorded in the inpatient departments of the Scientific Research Institute of Lung Diseases under the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Azerbaijan over a two-year period (2022- 2024). The data collection covers various drugs and documents the nature and frequency of observed adverse effects.The aim of this study is to identify the most common ADRs, determine high-risk drugs, and understand patterns of specific adverse effects, providing valuable insights for medical personnel and playing an important role in enhancing patient safety.
