Adverse-Drug-Reaction Monitoring

Faich, Gerald A.·1986·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has long been conducting a program to monitor reported adverse drug reactions to approved drugs. The purpose of this paper is to review the rationale for monitoring adverse drug reactions, to describe the current program, and to encourage physician participation in the program. The program began in the late 1950s, after the registration by the American Medical Association of cases of aplastic anemia due to chloramphenicol.1 It expanded greatly when the 1962 revision of the Food and Drug Act required the pharmaceutical industry to report adverse drug reactions to the FDA.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
