New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/27/2020 -- A career in pharmacovigilance can have an immense impact on the healthcare industry as a whole. Doctors are expected to take part in a pharmacovigilance system to report on the adverse reactions and events to their patients caused by prescribed drugs. Surprisingly, according to a report by the World Health Organisation (WHO), only 5% of doctors worldwide do. However, this could be down to lack of funding and access to such systems which is why individuals working in the pharmacovigilance sector are so vitally important to the safety of patients in the US and across the world. For over 170 years, professionals have been monitoring the drugs market yet it has been reported that 50% of all medicines are prescribed, dispensed or sold inappropriately and a staggering 50% of all patients fail to take them correctly, reported by WHO. It is for this reason that many companies spend a modest amount each year on their pharmacovigilance systems. In the US the average spend on the sector was $16m per year, reported by Cutting Edge Information. The industry is expected to increase its market value and be worth around $10.6bn by 2026, according to Acumen Research, which gives great possibilities for individuals looking to progress their career.
