Amended policy on DHPCs

The Medicines Evaluation Board (MEB) has amended its policy on Direct Healthcare Professional Communications (DHPCs). This regards policy on medicinal products for human use.

The change concerns:

  • MEB 44 - Policy document on Direct Healthcare Professional Communications (DHPCs)
    The marketing authorisation holder must attach one (or more) photos of the product with the DHPC. The photo is used for better recognition of the relevant product when the DHPC and news item are published.

Policy formulation

The MEB did not carry out a public consultation for this small policy amendment. The proposal was submitted to healthcare providers (Medical Practice Committee).
