| Summary: | <b>Aim:</b> The practising clinical veterinarians in Turkey were
questioned about their opinions and experiences on adverse
drug reactions.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> The research was applied on 250
clinic veterinarian who graduated from 13 different universities
working in 22 different cities. It was expected that
veterinarians shared their experiences in research, after
pharmacovigilance was mentioned.<p>
<b>Results:</b> 81% of veterinarians had experienced at least one
adverse drug reaction. When the drug groups were evaluated,
most adverse drug reactions were determined (p<0.05)
in vitamin-mineral-amino acid preparates (39%), and this
group was followed by antibacterials (26%) and antiparasitics
(26%). The most observed adverse drug reactions
were anaphylaxis and the local reactions on the injected
region.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> It is confirmed that, a center where the adverse
drug reaction reports could be evaluated and a spontaneous
reporting system is needed. It is decided that it would be
beneficial to report adverse drug reaction cases to the authorized
veterinarians under circumstances of these cases. |
