    Abstract
    We aimed to determine the reporting trends and characteristics of Individual Case Safety Reports (ICSRs) from the Zimbabwean national pharmacovigilance system. ICSRs submitted to VigiBaseTM, the World Health Organisation's ICSR database between January 1993 and December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed with respect to the suspected medicine, System Organ Class (SOC), adverse drug reaction (ADR) type and seriousness, Anatomic Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) group, age, and gender. In total, 4071 ICSRs were submitted to VigiBaseTM from targeted spontaneous reporting (n = 2909; 71.5%), vaccine surveillance (n = 679; 16.7%), and passive spontaneous reporting (n = 483; 11.9%), respectively
