A pan-EU task force made up of pharmaceutical industry associations, including the Association of the European Self-Care Industry (AESGP), is calling for the earlier adoption of electronic product information (ePI) and a harmonized approach to its implementation across EU member states.
EU Industry Calls For Earlier And Harmonized Adoption Of Electronic Product Information
Electronic product information should be “fully operational” within four years after the entry into force of the revised EU pharma legislation and should precede the phasing out of paper leaflets, proposes the Inter-Association Taskforce (IATF) on ePI. Once the new system is up and running, ePI should be implemented across the EU in a harmonized way, with all EU member states adopting the same standard, it says.
