This includes Special Reporting Situations such as:

  • Overdose, abuse, or misuse of the product;
  • An adverse event occurring from the withdrawal of the product;
  • Lack of product effect/efficacy;
  • Accidental or occupational exposure to the product;
  • Medication error (suspected or actual, including “near-miss” reports);
  • Pregnancy or exposure to the product during breastfeeding;
  • Suspected transmission of infectious agent via product;
  • An unexpected therapeutic or clinical benefit;
