    How are you going to meet the European Medicines Agency’s Monday 2nd July 2012 deadline?

    At the moment there are just over 500,000 products that will be affected by the new European Medicines Agency (EMA) regulatory change that becomes mandatory at the start of July this year. The introduction and imminent implementation of EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary (EVMPD) has set the Life Science Industry into hyper-drive as everyone seeks to adhere to protocol in their own way.

    Does your company have a registered product in Europe? Or is your company aiming for a product, or trial of a product within the EU? More than likely, Yes.

    The EMA have been slow with releasing assistance on interpreting and applying of EVMPD protocol. The main objective of the EVMPD is to assist the pharmacovigilance activities in the European Economic Area (EEA). As such, the EVMPD has been designed to support the collection, reporting, coding and evaluation of medicinal product data in a standardised and structured way.

    From the deadline you and your company will have to meet the demands of the EVMPD mandate. Companies have an enormous task in preparing the data needed to meet EVMPD practices and keeping it updated all electronically and online.

    This session will break through the haze that is surrounding the biggest changes to regulations in decades. It will be exploring the challenges using EVMPD with in-depth guidance and detailed information then exploring ways of overcoming these regulatory obstacles.

    Places are filling up fast from top level management whose company needs to use the regulations, to middle management who have to educate a workforce to ensure successful implementation.
