For his part, BOMRA\u2019s Dr Parthasarathi Gurumurthy said the organisation played a crucial role in ensuring the safety, efficacy and quality of medications in the country. He said through the partnership their pharmacovigilance system would be strengthened through receiving comprehensive and reliable information on adverse drug reactions directly from the hospital<\/p>\n

He added that the collaboration was expected to have a positive impact on patient care and medication safety, and that by sharing information and working together healthcare professionals and regulatory authorities could identify patterns and trends in adverse drug reactions leading to improved understanding of drug reactions and the development of targeted interventions.<\/p>\n

He said the two were committed to ensuring the highest standards of patient safety and healthcare delivery, and that the agreement signified their dedication to collaborative efforts in monitoring and reporting adverse drug reactions.<\/p>\n
