How to report the commercialisation of a medicinal product?

The pharmaceutical company involved is to report the commercialisation of a medicinal product by completing the online form for the designated reporting point.

When to report the commercialisation of a medicinal product?

The pharmaceutical company involved is to report the commercialisation of a medicinal product as soon as the effective date of commercialisation is known.

In order to keep all commercialisation status information up-to-date, it is imperative that commercialisation be reported at least 15 working days before the effective date of commercialisation.

The Authentic Source on Medicines is used for:
