Abstract

Cardiovascular disease describes coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral arterial disease, rheumatic and congenital heart disease and venous thromboembolism. Collectively, cardiovascular disease is responsible for 17.9 million deaths per year globally 31% of all deaths, within which Ischaemic Heart disease accounts for the majority of mortality.  The present study aimed to assess adverse drug reaction monitoring in cardiac patients in a tertiary care hospital. 31-40 years age patients were  56 (26.66%), 41-50 years age patients were more 56 (26.66%) as compared to other age groups. Calcium channel blockers patients were more 56 (26.66%), as compared to Beta blockers patients were 44 (20.95%),  Nitrates patients were 54 (26.71%),  Alpha blockers patients were 56 (26.66%), Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors patients were 56 (26.66%). Central nervous system affected patients were more (68%), as compared to Respiratory system affected patients were (56%), Gastrointestinal system affected patients were  (39%), Cardiovascular system affected patients were (47%), Musculoskeletal system affected patients were  (68%). Adverse drug reactions potential for a particular cardiovascular drug varies with the individual, the disease being treated, and the extent of exposure to other drugs. Knowledge of this complex interplay between patient, drug, and disease is a critical component of safe and effective cardiovascular disease management. The risk of Adverse drug reactions  increased with the number of drugs in the prescription. Most of the Adverse drug reactions  were mild in severity and were not preventable. The timely therapy adjustment can helps to optimize pharmacotherapy and reduce the severity of these reactions.
