The EMA, which licenses medicines for 500 million Europeans and oversees an industry worth 200bn, has been based in London for more than 20 years, but will leave its Canary Wharf headquarters after March To read more In addition to this, are the issues that face Dr Reddy s and Bristol labs.

2 Commercial bulletin Parallel Import Activity Comparing the number of offers for parallel imports which Wavedata have seen in prices lists with the euro to pound exchange rate shows that although there has been some monthly variation in the amount of imported stock being offered for sale, the number of offers has more or less hovered along at between 15,000 and 20,000 offers per month since This is less than the previous period between 2009 and 2011 when the number of PI offers was just over 20,000, and far less than the period before 2009 when the number of offers as high as 35,000 offers a month. The 15,000 to 20,000 corridor does seem to be with us for the next year or so, but Brexit may change this. Wavedata.co.uk Price Watch.UK Pregabalin continues to create precedents Pregabalin continues to create precedents in the UK, following its recent history with carved out indications. The authority NHS England advised in June that pharmacists could dispense pregabalin for treating any condition from July. Its colleagues in the Department of Health responded by putting pregabalin in category M of the Drug Tariff of reimbursement prices from 1 August, an unusually rapid step, especially one month into a new quarterly Drug Tariff.
