Document: Main pharmacovigilance signals and alerts issued in 2009 are reviewed. Efalizumab was withdrawn from the market due to increased risks, including progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and questionable efficacy. New cases of PML are still being reported with rituximab and natalizumab. Rare cases of pure red cell aplasia have been observed with mycophenate. Gastrointestinal perforation, severe skin rashes and various ocular disorders have been reported during erlotinib use. Severe skin rashes have been related to etravirine.

Aliskiren can cause angioedema.
