Abstract
Pharmacovigilance, previously more often referred to as adverse drug monitoring or drug surveillance is now regarded as the quality control system of the society in the use of medicines. Many new drugs are being introduced in our country. Therefore, there is a need for a vibrant pharmacovigilance system in the country to protect the population from the potential harm that may be caused by some of these new drugs. As we know, Pharmacovigilance can only be effective through the active participation ofpractitioners.Considering this we can effectively train medical students which are future practitioners. 1
