Abstract
Pharmacoepidemiology (PE) applies epidemiologic concepts to clinical pharmacology. This discipline was born on 1960s and since then various methods and techniques have been developed to design and analyze medications' data. 1 This chapter will review the factors involved in the selection of the type of pharmacoepidemiologic study design, and advantages and disadvantages of these designs. Since other chapters describe randomized clinical trials in detail, we will focus on observational studies. © Springer Science + Business Media B.V. 2008.
