THE PHARMA DESK

A comic about the machine Publishes whenever MLR approves it
№ 005 · “Reportable” Flat color · four panels · July 2026

Adverse events must be reported within 24 hours of awareness. Even Aunt Carol's.

IMPORTANT STRIP INFORMATION: Exposure to pharmacovigilance training may cause ruined cookouts, reflexive intake questions, and the inability to hear “weird dreams” as anything but a MedDRA preferred term. Do not attempt to outrun a reporting obligation; it travels faster than you do. If a family member begins describing a symptom, report within 24 hours of awareness — yes, including holidays. Ask your drug safety officer if family gatherings are right for you.
IMPORTANT SITE INFORMATION: The Pharma Desk is the personal creative work of one PharmD and does not reflect the views of any employer, past, present, or under embargo. All products depicted are fictional — you know exactly why. Do not take strategic advice from a comic strip. If a panel resembles your workday, that is a class effect, not a coincidence. Ask your MLR reviewer if satire is right for you.
