Reporting on ADRs by healthcare workers should be a part of everyday clinical practice, since it is one of the indicators of healthcare quality. National ADR reporting system in Montenegro is organised by the Pharmacovigilance Department of the Agency for Medicines and Medical Devices of Montenegro, but the number of reports coming from healthcare professionals is quite low. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct additional training of healthcare workers, to improve their awareness about the importance of ADRs and the risk factors that lead to them, as well as to increase the number of reported suspected ADRs.
