The Reporting Form lies at the heart of the Pharmacovigilance system, where information gathering relies on local reports. The importance of reporting is essential for the proper functioning of the pharmacovigilance system in Albania. You can either download and complete the form for submission to AKBPM or fill it out electronically. In case of multiple reports concerning the same incident, an alert is triggered, signaling the commencement of pharmacovigilance system activities. A substantial volume of reports plays a pivotal role in Albania's full integration into the World Health Organization's Programme for International Drug Monitoring (WHO-PIDM).
