Drug Safety Reports (DSR)
DSR publishes rapid, rigorously reviewed drug safety case reports, pharmacovigilance analyses, and risk communication. We welcome reports on small molecules, biologics, vaccines, and advanced therapies.
Aims & Scope
DSR focuses on adverse event case reports, post-marketing safety observations, safety signal detection, medication error reports, risk minimization strategies, and benefit–risk evaluations.
- Case reports & case series of suspected adverse reactions
- Disproportionality and signal detection studies
- Real-world evidence and registry analyses
- Methodology and reporting standards in pharmacovigilance
Why Open Access?
Safety information should be globally accessible to clinicians, regulators, and patients. All articles are free to read and reuse with attribution.
