The PvPI has been putting its best efforts to train healthcare professionals in pharmacovigilance and it has achieved new heights in establishing best practices for the other countries to follow for the development of pharmacovigilance system in their respective countries or regions.

This review aims to analyze reported cases of acral area necrosis following the use of local anesthesia with epinephrine since 2001. A thorough search was conducted on PubMed and Google Scholar using specific keywords to identify articles reporting acral area necrosis caused using local anesthesia and epinephrine. Our search yielded eight publications describing a total of 13 cases of ischemic events in acral areas. These cases involved finger necrosis (five cases), scrotal skin necrosis (two cases), and eyelid necrosis (six cases), following the injection of a combination of epinephrine and lignocaine. The majority of affected patients were female who underwent surgical intervention and reconstruction. The use of epinephrine in local anesthesia offers significant advantages and is generally safe for acral areas. However, the risk of necrosis cannot be entirely eliminated, particularly in patients with compromised vascular function. Adhering to proper guidelines and selecting suitable patients can help mitigate the risk. Phentolamine serves as a potential rescue agent if vascular compromise occurs.
