ABSTRACT:
Artificial Intelligence plays a transformative role in Pharmacovigilance emphasizing its huge impact on detection of adverse drug reactions rather effectively. Various studies were analysed thoroughly identifying key AI applications such as Natural language processing and Machine learning alongside predictive modelling techniques very effectively. It highlights significant challenges such as complex data quality issues and gaps in regulatory frameworks alongside significant infrastructure shortcomings and big limitations. AI's transformative potential in Pharmacovigilance remains evident despite existing challenges and future tech policy collaboration will further bolster drug safety greatly.
