Medical Information Services

Everyone marketing a medicine in the UK/EU needs a Medical Information service in place – CambReg would like to provide your service

What Is a Medical Information Service?

It is the term commonly used for the scientific service that is required to be in place when a company markets a medicinal product in the UK/EU.  All Marketing Authorisation holders must have a dedicated person available 24 hours per day to answer queries from the public and health care professionals regarding their marketed products.

Legislation

Article 98 of EC Directive 2001/83 states that:

The marketing authorization holder shall establish, within his undertaking, a scientific service in charge of information about the medicinal products which he places on the market.

This is echoed in the European directive on the advertising of medicinal products (92/28//EEC) and the ABPI code of practice

Do you have the resources needed to provide this service internally?

To offer a complete service in house incurs high set up costs including the employment of an experienced team so it makes perfect business sense to outsource your medical information service.  Use our highly skilled team who are already providing this service to our existing clients and avoid the hassle of setting up your own.
