Your Trusted Partner for Pharmacovigilance Support in Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe is an evolving pharmaceutical market in Southern Africa, with increasing regulatory focus on medicine safety, post-marketing surveillance, and pharmacovigilance system accountability. As regulatory expectations continue to mature, pharmaceutical companies must establish structured pharmacovigilance systems supported by qualified expertise and regulatory alignment.
Market success in Zimbabwe depends not only on product approval but also on continuous safety monitoring, timely adverse event reporting, and compliance with national pharmacovigilance frameworks.
At DDReg, we provide end-to-end pharmacovigilance services in Zimbabwe, enabling companies to meet regulatory requirements, safeguard patients, and maintain compliance across the product lifecycle.
Pharmacovigilance Framework in Zimbabwe
Pharmacovigilance in Zimbabwe is regulated by the Medicines Control Authority of Zimbabwe, which oversees drug safety monitoring, adverse event reporting, and post-marketing surveillance.
MCAZ plays a central role in:
- Monitoring adverse drug reactions (ADRs)
- Enforcing pharmacovigilance compliance
- Ensuring public health protection
- Strengthening national safety reporting systems
Zimbabwe’s pharmacovigilance system is increasingly structured, with clear expectations for MAH accountability and system readiness.
Normative Framework Governing Pharmacovigilance in Zimbabwe
Pharmacovigilance obligations in Zimbabwe are defined through national regulatory guidelines and policy frameworks:
- Pharmacovigilance Guideline for Pharmaceutical Industry (MCAZ/PVCT/GL-02, Rev 2, May 2024) – Provides detailed requirements for PV system establishment, maintenance, and QPPV responsibilities
- Zimbabwe National Pharmacovigilance Policy Handbook, 2nd Edition (2016) – Defines the national pharmacovigilance framework and stakeholder roles
These frameworks emphasize structured pharmacovigilance systems, defined responsibilities, and proactive safety monitoring.
