چکیده
Eficacia y seguridad son los dos pilares fundamentales que apoyan la farmacoterapia. En lo concerniente a la seguridad, desde hace varias décadas se está trabajando en su aspecto más conocido y mejor estudiado: las reacciones adversas a medicamentos (RAM), que, según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, son los efectos no deseados y nocivos cuando estos se emplean a dosis adecuadas y con indicaciones correctas. Diversas iniciativas están en curso con el objetivo de monitorizar las RAM de los fármacos en la fase post-comercialización: la obligatoriedad del personal sanitario de comunicar RAM, el perfeccionamiento de métodos de detección y notificación, y la creación de los sistemas nacionales de fármacovigilancia, entre otros. En España se encuentra en vigor desde 1990 la Ley del Medicamento, que consolida la existencia del Sistema Español de Fármacovigilancia.
