Summary of Pharmacoepidemiology

Pharmacoepidemiology is that the study of the employment and effects of medication in large numbers of people; it provides an estimate of the probability of beneficial effects of a drug during a population and therefore the probability of adverse effects. It are often called a bridge science spanning both clinical pharmacology and epidemiology.

Pharmacoepidemiology concentrates on clinical patient outcomes from therapeutics by using methods of clinical epidemiology and applying them to understanding the determinants of beneficial and adverse drug effects, effects of genetic variation on drug effect, duration-response relationships, clinical effects of drug-drug interactions, and therefore the effects of medication non-adherence. Pharmacovigilance may be a a part of Pharmacoepidemiology that involves continual monitoring, during a population, for unwanted effects and other safety concerns arising in drugs that are already on the market. Pharmacoepidemiology sometimes also involves the conduct and evaluation of programmatic efforts to boost medication use on a population basis.
