Development:
a summary of types of pharmacovigilance studies is provided with examples of objectives of research works already done and published in scientific magazines likely to consider and use in actual conditions each researcher has, and there are also presented variables that have already been established in other studies, which must be taken into account to study drug safety and statistical techniques considering the types of variables to be related.
Conclusion:
