Abstract
Pharmacovigilance (PV), which is also known as drug safety. It is the pharmacological science relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects, particularly long term, and short term side effects of medicines [1]. The key role of this field of medicine is to ensure the safe reception of drugs, examining the adverse side effects reported by patients. The compound causing side effects in the drug need to be identified and the remedy to counteract the side effect should be explored. This study was carried out at Regional Research Institute of Medicine (RRIUM), Srinagar, wherein a total of 10 patients suffering from general body ache, common cold and fever etc were analysed for the adverse side effects caused after prescribing the pharmacopoeial drug Habb-e-Karanjawa. It was observed that almost all patients suffered from gastritis after the consumption of the drug. After a thorough analysis of the ingredients of the drug it was concluded that the corrosive effect of compound copper sulphate or TutiyaSabz present in Habb-e-Karanjawa can be the main reason of causing gastrointestinal problems in patients.
