Guideline on good pharmacovigilance practices (GVP) Module VII – Periodic safety update report (Rev 1):

Introduction:

Periodic safety update reports (PSURs) are pharmacovigilance documents intended to provide an evaluation of the risk-benefit balance of a medicinal product for submission by marketing authorisation holders at defined time points during the post-authorisation phase.
