Drug Registration

Drug registration is a key component in ensuring the safety and efficacy of pharmaceuticals.

Basic rules for drug registration in Ukraine

Drug registration in Ukraine is a complex process that is subject to numerous rules and requirements. The basic rules for drug registration in Ukraine include the following aspects:

• Application submission. The applicant wishing to register a medicinal product must submit an appropriate application to the Ministry of Health of Ukraine.
• Documentation. A complete set of documents must be provided, including data on the quality, safety and efficacy of the drug.
• Clinical trials. Clinical trials may be required prior to registration of the medicinal product to confirm its safety and efficacy.
• Testing and evaluation. The drug undergoes quality, safety and efficacy testing and evaluation in accordance with requirements.
• Packaging and labeling requirements. The medicinal product must be properly packaged and labeled in accordance with legal requirements.
• Payment. The appropriate registration fee will need to be paid.
• Registration and licensing. After successful review and evaluation, the medicinal product is registered and its manufacturer is issued an appropriate license.

In parallel with the registration process, an important aspect is the possibility of re-registration of medicinal products. Since medicinal products may undergo changes such as composition, dosage, packaging, etc., their re-registration rules are also defined in relevant regulations. This process involves submitting appropriate documentation and undergoing appropriate testing and evaluation to ensure the quality, safety and efficacy of the drug after changes. Re-registration may also occur on a regular schedule or in the event of significant changes to the drug.
