Abstract

Pharmacovigilance deals with the study of adverse drug reactions. It provides information from which to detect adverse update of drugs. The environmental impact of drugs is a rapidly evolving problem. Withdrawal of diclofenac from veterinary practice and various other such exampleshaving direct impact on the environment led to the development ofa newdiscipline which may be called as “pharmacoenvironmentology”. Evaluation of the potential environment risks posed by the medical product is thus needed. This impact should be assessed, and on a case by case basis, special arrangements to limit it should be envisaged.
