%X This issue of the Canadian Journal of Hospital Pharmacy (CJHP) includes 2 articles that concern adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Roy and Ma1 report on the impact of a policy change on pharmacistsĄŻ reporting of ADRs, while Auyeung and Lee2 provide a case report of Stevens¨CJohnson syndrome associated with ciprofloxacin use. Over the past several decades, the CJHP has published numerous articles describing pharmacistsĄŻ involvement in ADR reporting and treatment, as well as the incidence of adverse drug events. This long-term, continuing focus on ADR reporting in the CJHP is a good prompt for all of us who work as pharmacists to re-evaluate our current perspectives on this topic and to become aware of new opportunities to increase pharmacistsĄŻ role in this important responsibility
