A major task for the Uppsala Monitoring Centre (UMC) is to detect early signals of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in the WHO Database. The database currently contains over 2.8 million spontaneously reported ADR case reports continuously collected by National Pharmacovigilance Centres in countries participating in the WHO Programme for International Drug Monitoring. The database is scanned every quarter and drug-ADR combinations are filtered out using different selection criteria intended to catch potential international drug safety signals at an early stage. Summary case data are reviewed by experts on the UMC's review panel and the signals are presented to the Programme members in the restricted circulation document entitled 'SIGNAL'.
