Sofija Savić
@sofijasavi
I'm building a drug safety career through toxicological analysis, pharmacovigilance training, and patient counseling.
SerbiaWhat I'm looking for
I've analyzed paracetamol poisoning data from Serbia's National Poison Control Centre and conducted an Ethics Committee-approved survey of 251 respondents on OTC medicine safety.
My final thesis connected toxicological evidence with real-world medication behavior, including a measurable change in participants' perception of paracetamol risk. I used Excel to assess risky dosing and drug-combination behaviors and investigated factors linked to paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity.
Through internships at Galen Pharm and AU Lilly, I've counseled patients on safe medication use, supported dispensing and pharmacy operations, and worked with healthcare professionals. I'm looking to apply this blend of toxicology, data analysis, and patient-focused pharmacy practice in drug safety and pharmacovigilance.
