%X In this review, the effects of thalidomide babies on the development of systematic pharmacovigilance activities were searched with historical perspective. For this purpose, after PubMed search with relevant keywords, scientific studies that serve our purpose were included and historical information was obtained from the reviews. Our results underlied the fact that thalidomide disaster was the main driving force for the development of important pharmacovigilance activities such as teratogenicity, ethical and legal regulations on drug safety, drug development and post-marketing drug surveillance. Currently, the return of thalidomide in the treatment of cutaneous leprosy and multiple myeloma has changed our view on drug safety and highlighted the importance of risk management. As a result, looking at the thalidomide disaster from today¡¯s perspective will help us not only to better understand pharmacovigilance activities but also to identify and solve the challenges that are waiting in the coming years
