By monitoring their own social media and online communities, companies are less apt to be caught off guard by negative social comments or adverse events.<\/p>\n<p>This monitoring can even be used in new channels like messaging and chatbots. For example, when a chatbot or other automation receives a user response that mentions key words that alert the brand, those words can trigger a message to a human agent at the brand or partner to review the content and submit it as an adverse event to colleagues in MedReg or pharmacovigilance.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important that the technology and adverse events reporting tools brands utilize for adverse event management in social media and messaging maintain the company&#8217;s compliance with the FDA, can escalate chatbot adverse event conversations to humans, continually monitor and act when adverse events occur, as well as report and archive conversations for regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sco.lt\/7HikeP\">More&#8230;<\/a>    <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to the November 17, 2017, issue of Pharma Industry News Update (aka PinUp).
