Introduction to Epidemiology and Public Health A1 - Waning, Brenda A1 - Montagne, Michael Y1 - 2001 N1 - T2 - Pharmacoepidemiology: Principles and Practice AB - On an almost daily basis, people read or hear about new drug discoveries and adverse reactions supposedly caused by drugs on the market. Sometimes panic sets in because a drug seems to be responsible for the death of some of its users, but how can people evaluate what they read and hear? How are adverse reactions and side effects studied and measured? How are a drug’s beneficial effects determined? To answer these questions and many others about medications and drugs used in society, data and information are gathered and analyzed through pharmacoepidemiological study.
