E-drug: old drugs review procedures? -------------------------------------------------- Like many countries, South Africa registered all drugs on the market when it started drug registration many years ago. The European Union asked all member states to review these 'old' drugs before 1994. As the South African Drug Regulatory Authority will most probably also embark on such a process, we would be interested to know from other countries what their exact procedures and experiences were in dealing with this backlog of 'old' drugs. Your feedback will be given to MCC and DOH for their perusal. kind regards Wilbert Bannenberg SADAP coordinator Wilbert Bannenberg, SADAP Coordinator Hallmark 938, P/Bag X 828, Pretoria 0001, South Africa Tel work +27-12-3120374/5 Fax +27-12-3244525 Cellphone +27-82-5756249 Email 73377.3055@compuserve.com or bannew@hltrsa.pwv.gov.za -- Send mail for the `E-Drug' conference to `e-drug@usa.healthnet.org'.
