Technician in Regulatory Issues
Description
The chemical industry of health is one of the sectors with the greatest involvement of public authorities. This affects the various stages of the production process and marketing, mainly the administrative approval of drugs through compulsory registration, pricing, and the regulation and control of procedures for R&D and manufacturing.
Pharmaceutical regulation technicians work at large and medium-size companies related to the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics or perfumery. At SMEs, their work may be performed directly by the person in charge of regulatory affairs, the tecnical director or the quality manager, or it may be done by a company specalising in the legal processing of registrations.
This professional is in charge of preparing documentation necessary for the submission and approval of new products, thus taking responsibility for preparing registration dossiers, for delivering them to relevant regulatory agencies (the European Medicine Evaluation Agency [EMEA] in Europe and the Spanish Agency of Medicines in Spain), and for monitoring the evaluation process. In addition, this professional keeps approvals up-to-date by regularly providing evidence or documents required by health authorities, in collaboration with other departments in the company.
