Pharmacovigilance: Our experts take care of your pharmacovigilance concerns!

Since pharmacovigilance is a field that requires scientific, pharmaceutical and medical knowledge, Medipha Santé has put in place a solid pharmacovigilance strategy for you and our team unites expertise in the following areas: medicines knowledge, regulatory control and quality assurance.

The legal framework for our pharmacovigilance services for medicinal products marketed in the EU is defined in Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 as amended by Regulation (EU) No 1235/2010, Directive 2001/83/EC as amended by Directive 2010/84/EU and Regulation (EU) 520/2012. In addition, the Good Practice Guidelines on Pharmacovigilance (GVP), the French Bonnes pratiques de Pharmacovigilances and the relevant guidelines of the ICH and CIOMS provide the framework for the conduct of our pharmacovigilance activities.
