2. Description
Clinical Pharmacology is a medical specialty and a resource in the health care system to support the proper use of drugs. Our Dept. at Karolinska University Hospital provides teaching, research and clinical pharmacology services for Karolinska Institutet and the Stockholm county. We are running a Therapeutic Drug Monitoring laboratory, and a Regional Pharmacovigilance Unit for the Swedish Medical Products Agency. We have an international collaboration including Asia, Africa and WHO. We have integrated pharmacovigilance and pharmacoepidemiology with pharmacogenetics and pharmacokinetics for 40 years now with a focus on the growing and aging population. Recent examples are: Vaccine Vigilance: Safety of pandemic flu vaccine in the population of Stockholm, Sweden (BMJ 2011); PhD theses: Anders Sundström (May 2010) Methods in Pharmacoepidemiology: Four Studies, Four Settings and Anders Helldén (Sept 2010) Aciclovir–induced neuropsychiatric symptoms – a clinical pharmacology study.
